I doubt he would believe it. And I also don't want to spread that around. My father's issues came from his own upbringing and military related PTSD, I don't want to bad mouth him, I just want my experience to be valid.

I also don't need to waste my time telling others what he did to me. It's just not useful to me. I mean I talk about it in therapy as part of treatment, but not elsewhere.
