For four years was sexually abused, when I was very young. I am now 17, but now every time bad things happen or start to build up I relate my life back to that time, so it feels like there is even more. My dad is aggressive too, so I just start to pile all this stuff up in my mind that I worry about or get upset about. even sometimes when one bad thing happens it feels like I have 10 tonnes of worry on my shoulders because I constantly think of that as well. Now I can't sleep at all and I just feel like I'm slipping into an abyss that I am never going to break out of. Has anyone else experienced this? Where you relate all bad things back to abuse?

Sorry you were abused. I was abused as a young child for 1 1/2 years by a neighbor at the age of 5. What I experience is 'triggers' in the present day that bring me back to those feelings I had in my childhood that relate to the abuse. The feelings don't necessarily relate to the abuse experiences/details but the feelings I hold about my value as a person is there (as a result of the abuse).
Are you seeing a therapist? If not I would recommend it and to find someone who specializes in trauma/sexual abuse/depression. Keep us posted!

Yeah, resolving your past in therapy would be a good idea.
