my parents abused me just enough to ruin my life permanently, but not enough to kill me
you could argue that it's a good thing. but to me it's the absolute worst outcome. I wish i was dead because at least I wouldn't have to keep suffering the consequences of their abuse into my adulthood. they hurt me in every way you can imagine. physically and mentally. the physical abuse was the worst part of it. I won't get into details because it's disturbing
how could someone do this to their child? how could you beat your kid so bad until they can barely breathe? why aren't they getting punished for this? why can't I take revenge? how is that fair? why are they allowed to destroy me while I should just forgive and move on ? why do I have to keep living with all this trauma? even adults can't handle that much abuse, let alone a kid
