I'm just trying to get a clear picture before I reply to your questions at the end of your post.
Ok, let me explain. The panic attacks started at the end of the summer in 2014. The counselor told my parents to stop hurting me in may 2015, I remember that. So it hasn't been a year, but 5 months.

The panic attacks stopped in June of 2015, I think. My mom started acting loving about a month later, because at first she didn't believe they had stopped. My dad already kind of acted loving during the time I had panic attacks, but just when I wasn't having them at that moment, if that makes sense.

I'd say they were pretty loving before the attacks started. But we used to fight a lot ever since when I was really young. And my dad could be pretty aggressive during those fights, and my mom could be really verbally aggressive. Those fights happened pretty often. And my dad had hit me in the face a lot of times before the attacks started. But only while I wasn't behaving well. One time my lip was bleeding a lot after he slapped me. And this was way before the attacks.

Really occasionally, he would hit me for small things. For example when we were riding a bike and I didn't use hands signals when I would make a turn because I couldn't hold the handlebars with one hand properly, and my dad slapped me hard across the face.

My mom could be verbally aggressive, and she would insult me often when we were fighting, and insult me whenever I had a problem she didn't like. And sometimes she slapped me, or hit me on the head repeatedly, when we were fighting.

But when we weren't fighting they were pretty loving, allowed me to do a lot of things, did fun things with me sometimes.

I hope that cleared things up
