I am trying to be understanding and compassionate to those who are not fully aware of how their disorder is causing others harm. I am not going to report anyone because I understand they are not in a good state of recovery. I know I have been there and to be reported can cause to much hurt. We teach each other so much in here from learning to be empathetic to other peoples plight, social skills, listening skills and how to behave during difficult times. I will just stay out of the chat rooms for a while because it is to triggering for me and we should only blame ourselves for how we feel not others.

When a child’s emotional needs are not met and a child is repeatedly hurt and abused, this deeply and profoundly affects the child’s development. Wanting those unmet childhood needs in adulthood. Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.
