Don't punish yourself. You have to learn to live with and deal with the wrongs in your life that you've experienced. Your father had to deal with the horrible things that happened to him too. You're not trying to whine..you're trying to survive with something that is happening to you present day. Your father will always have his demons about the horrors that happened. But you both have a chance to celebrate the life you have now! So, go out and enjoy the world.
Peace

I've been doing geneology research on line for several days. My Dad was a holocaust survivor, and I've seen some pretty awful stuff on the sites that have survivor lists, and lists of the dead. Now I'm thinking Daddy lived through all that, he saw his family sent off to die, and countless other familys too. He was physically and emotionally damaged the rest of his life, through no fault of his own, he was just born in the wrong place at the wrong time.
So if he survived all that, what busines do I have whining about the damage done to me by an abusive man that everyone told me was bad news, or the things I experienced as a result of other bad choices that I made? I've had some rough times, but darn sure nothing that compares to what i've seen on my screen these last few days. Am I just a crybaby that needs to get over it? And how would I do that?
