I've been dealing with severe mental illness since I was 18-19 years old. I'm now almost 28 years old and I STILL gave my mom hell with my illness because she was in denial about my illness for the longest time. She has accused me of faking it and downright said I was only going to hospital stays because I didn't want to go to work. Then again my mom and I had a really bad past with each other. We fought a lot. She threaten to kick my ***, throw me down the stairs, and when my baby sister lied to my mom that I hit her my mom threaten to knock me out and see how it feels.

I've dealt with sexual abuse/rape as a young child. I've dealt with emotional abuse such as being threaten to get my head cut off with a knife or being killed. Neglect from always having lice missing school and my father and stepmother locking me and my siblings in a room all day without food or other basic needs. I've also dealt with physical abuse from when they pull my hair and sometimes picking me up by my hair and slamming me on the ground as a child. I was never violent as a child but violent things happened to me.

oh my goodness Erti I’m so sorry all of this has happened to you. Parents are supposed to be there to protect and love. You deserved better.

Thanks Valley... I've ranted about this before multiple times. Something lately has been triggering these memories and sometimes it's just too overwhelming.

That sounds beyond horrible, Erti. I had similar experiences but I was lucky enough to get out of the house by 18. I hope you'll get your own place soon.
