I have been verbally, physically and sexually abused. It takes years of work and therapy to get through it all. And just when you think you're all better...Boom...its an issue again. It never goes away, you just need to decide how you are going to deal with it.

Unfortunatly it is more common to be abused than not. i grew up in a house where my mother was alcoholic, had a child molesting cheating boyfriend and my stepfather was in prison for murder. my bestfriend died suddenly and i was told to "get over it because she was dead." All i can say is day by day the world becomes darker and more insane as we all grow farther from God. i encourage everyone to seek the truth that makes sense to them. (the only place i found it was from Jehovahs witnesses, invite one in sometime, u might be really surprised.)
I think the most important thing about abuse is to know its not ur fault, and do some serious self examination to be sure that u wont become self hating and continue the abuse yourself. Find a loving community of friends and get to know God.
Good luck!

I was physically, emotionally & mentally abused from age 4 (earliest memory) until my 2nd divorce in 2000. Of course it was different people. My X \once told me that he knew I'd been abused 2 mins after we met. I left after 8 long years with him. It took me almost dying & him never once being arrested, for me to leave. The shelter was nice & 1 month later I was on my own & filed for divorce. He still tries to hurt me in other ways. Recently he turned my son against me & got custody less than 2 weeks ago. The child he held a 9mm to, left me for him. That hurts worse than any beating I ever took. With therapy, meds for PTSD & a wonderful new husband I got over the past & I'm dealing with the present. If I can do it anyone can!

there are books and websites that deal with Emotional Abuse.
That would be a good way to start to learn what is a normal relationship, what is healthy, and how to not let the childhood abuse control you for the rest of your life.

~~you are correct, abuse does come in many forms there is the obvious, physical abuse, and sexual abuse, there is also mental and emotional abuse. mental and emotional abuse don't leave outward scars or physical signs but sometimes can cut and hurt more deep than physical abuse i've been there and understand~~

my mom was verbally abusive to me.. she ALWAYS yelled at me, and blamed me for things i didnt even do. i was a pretty good kid, i helped out as much as i could, and for the most part i stayed out of trouble. but she was horrible to me. so bad, that i left when i was 16. ive seen her like 3 times since then, and im 21 now. the last time i seen my mom i just turned 18. i miss having a family, but she makes me feel like crap.
and nowadays, loud music or noises, and yelling really affects me. i cant take it. its sad when someone has to be abused, so i kind of know how you feel.
hope your doing alright.. im with ya :)

I'm sure many have been abused but most will not admit it on this site. It is not something that a lot will discuss in front of everyone but may share one on one.
