My mum and I were physically abused by my biological father- until I was about 3.

Mum re-married, and turned the physical abuse and emotional abuse on me from the age of 4 or 5 through to 17.

18-21. It stopped being physical,. but the emptional abuse stepped up a notch...

You ladies have been through so, so, so much. It's heart-breaking to know that people can hurt children, their own family, and their own flesh and blood to such as extent.

I commmend your strength, and your bravery, and that of your alters, who have stood by you to help you through.

We wish you the best of luck with your journey to recovery.
