Physical & Emotional Abuse Support Group
Abuse is a general term for the treatment of someone that causes some kind of harm (to the abused person, to the abusers themselves, or to someone else) that is unlawful or wrongful. No one deserves abuse, period. Abuse can be emotional, physical, or sexual.
I realized in doing my healing work in therapy and also with other resources that the abuse from childhood has damaged to the point that I been operating dysfunctionally into my 30's. And yes, like most recovering victims, I blame myself and am having a hard time forgiving myself and others for what they did to me.
My question is are we at the blame for operating this way into our adulthood since we are adults and not children? Or does it have to do with the fact that we were mentally and emotionally damaged to the point we thought this dysfunction was normal and continued that way? Or is someone else the blame?

you are in control
As an adult, you listened to & trusted your inner knowing that it wasn't normal. You are continuing to take charge of your life and make positive steps to heal. You have much to be proud of!
I know, wouldn't it be great to have all the crappy memories extracted while leaving all the important learning and functioning intact!
I know there is a section in the book "The Four Agreements" that talks about that.
If I can find the passage, I'll post some of it.
I should read it someday, i know its a small book it just
has just bad vibes for me.
Thats his idea of emotional and spiritual recovery be true
to himself and do what He wants. No matter whats in
The way.
((((( hugs )))))
Yet our parents, who probably grew up in worse abuse...are responsible?
