It must have been profoundly difficult for you, being dropped into the Japanese education system after being in American schools until age 11. I'm not casting judgment, but the Japanese education system truly is foreign to Americans in every sense of the word.
I'm glad you've found the courage to post here, and that you feel the need to take positive action. I am guessing that returning to the US is not a practical option for you. If so maybe you can make the best use of the resources you can find (including this website) in your healing journey. And I know you feel like you served seven years in prison. But that "sentence" is over, and when you can let go of it you will truly be free of it.
