Abuse Denial Syndrome

when people suffer abuse, whether physical, emotional or mental, and finally are able to slither from it's grasp, it has shaped the thoughts enough so that it's easier to believe the abuse was deserved, rather than fight our way up from the depths for air and live a happy life. If someone has a bad day and throws insults, it seems much easier to be quiet and not rock the boat, then to tell the offender where they can buff their britches. Our children learn from what they see, and hear. Curbing the demon in their souls with love and discipline is the best way to deal with a pain they carry with them. That way, we're not saying it's okay, those things that happened to us. We're fighting to live, and breathe, and be happy.

My step Dad often loses his temper, I think he has an anger management problem! I must get told I'm an idiot at least nine times a week. It's not much but it's enough to fool me into believing him. This text as far as I can tell, comes from the heart. It's brave, honest and brilliant all at the same time. I enjoyed the read, well done!:)
