I'm 30 yrd old now but at about 11-14. I went through physical abuse with kids at school.. I used to roam times square when i was 12 yrs old with a radio and sit on the sidewalk. I had no friends and was an outcast. I took the subway at midnight, etc. When i look back i am lucky i wasnt killed. At the time my father was kicked out for being verbally abusive, my mom worked 3 jobs, guess i felt lost.
I had nobody, my relatives never came to see me. I tried telling my Mom how sad and depressed i was alot back then. She just would say "oh get over it", "Stop whining",, so then i would just close up and never mention anything again.
My life turned around at age 14 when i was enrolled in a new school and was able to make friends, went on to college.
I used to tell myself those "dark days" never exsisted, but I have been thinking of it recently, and how terrible my childhood was.
Should I tell my Mom?
