I feel Insaine when I sit in this room looking around and then remembering my sister as I watched her pull the trigger on my fathers pistol I remember rushing to catch her after hearing the gun shot I keep seeing that moment in my dreams I keep seeing my dad both in my nightmares and when he's threatening to kill me I remember him for all the abuse that he's dished out and has continued to but maybe I deserve it I don't know

My cat is going on trial for crimes against skink-anity. SIX in six weeks. Three this last week alone.The crack is maybe 1/4 inche wide. Maybe. Skink skitters past, her paw shoots out, her claw hooks in, she yanks, and somehow, having defied physics... WHAM. Skink-o-rama.Now, don't get me wrong, it's nice that she's a pesticidal maniac, but OMG. Skinks do no harm. They don't come inside. WTF.So,...
It sounds like an overwhelming experience and no wonder you feel insane. Who could cope with such memories? You are going to need help with this. You are going to need therapy or counseling.

If you haven't found counseling... Please, do so, if you can. I used to find school activities that kept me out of the house if Dad was in it... Avoidance was all I had.

after I moved out I was a mess (still am) but I slowly got better... first I ended up with ulcers at a very young age and the emotional and the effects it has on you follows you.... my mistake was trying to deal with it myself thinking time heals all wounds... maybe so but Im 48 and it still interferes with my life... I only reacently seaked out to get counceling... take it from me... get councelling now while your still young... good luck and I feel for you... my heart breaks hearing others going through what I did... stay strong
