I had worked though most of my problems. My father being a drunk who beat my mother. My mother who was a drug abuser who's in prison. And many more things. I go to church now which made it better. Still, recently all those old bad feelings have returned. I feel incapable of being happy.

Welcome to the Community, theangel44. Sorry for what you have had to endure.

Is professional help an option? What you describe is difficult to deal with otherwise.

Nothing is wrong with you. You have been through so much. I would seek a theorist. You will find that will help so much. Do you still live with them? Sometimes taking yourself away from the situation is the best start. Sorry life has been so ****** to you. Continue going to church. God is with you, I promise He loves you so much.

You are not responsible for your parents....you are only responsible for you. Don't let the memories drag you down to their level. Your job is to rise above them. Look to the future, don't dwell in the past. See that you have a life to live, and make of it what you will.

Yes, a decent therapist may be helpful.
Thanks for this!

Being raised in an environment like that will leave lingering battle scars, so to speak. Even, in finding a renewed sense of faith, there's lingering things below the surface. Many may intellectually take it all in. Yet, if most of what occurred, did so in childhood, in adulthood, it's a reprocessing with an adult perspective and sets of feelings that didn't exist in childhood, by virtue of it being childhood.
And even, once addressed, aha moments can occur.

Have you looked around the various sub forums in pc? Survivors of Abuse, Adult Children, think there's even a spirituality one...

Reaching out to others is part of life's journey.

Hey sorry, I'm new so I didn't know my post had been approved yet. But thank you for all your words. Things have been better. I got a job so I've been keeping busy and my mind off of things. Hopefully things keep improving

Not really. I'm due to leave in a few months. I'm going to be a Christian missionary for two years so I don't think I'm going to be fixed by professionals in a short time

I'm happy that things are going better for you Surely to have found a job can help. And it's wounderful that you're going to be a missionary, I'm sure that this will give you joy. Sending you hugs and prayers
