My past makes me really sad and angry.
I was abused and I also witnessed domestic violence. This is going to be really hard to say…But I need to tell someone about it, so I can move on, and hopefully not repeat the mistreatment in other relationships. Speaking of relationships I don’t like to make friends or get close to anyone, except for my family. Maybe it is because of all the abuse and I am always afarid people won’t like me or that I’m offending them.
I’ll tell you one story that still haunts me…when I was 8, on Fourth of July we were at a picnic at a park. I got lost for almost an hour, and my parents thought i went missing. They had a fight that escalated in the car ride. I knew it started because of me. My parents went to fight in their room and it got really loud so I went in their room, and saw my dad pushing my mom around, knocking things over. He told me to get out. Several minutes later he pushed my mom down the stairs and broke her glasses, luckily that was all. My 5 yr. old brother was crying downstairs, and then my dad was downstairs with my mom screaming about her broken glasses. They fought in the kitchen, my dad kicking and hitting my mom, and then…I’ll never forget it…my dad pointed a kitchen knife at my mom and I can still see her face. My mom tried to call 9 11 and my dad took over the phone and did it instead. When the police came I lied and said I did not see who pointed the knife at whom. I only did this because my dad would abuse me later and I was scared of him. He was abusive to me as well.
I am now a 22 yr. old woman, but I can’t seem to forget everything. Maybe just by telling you I will be able to forget it. I have never spoken to my father about how much I hate him. But I do. I HATE HIM!
