Being on receiving end of physical and emotional abuse in the past. From both of my parents (including sexual abuse) I’m trying to outgrow that mindset now.
So what really works for me is having this notion of what exactly is right now in front of me this very moment. And since the past is gone including all abuse. I can close that book now and move on forward.
This more of a diary entry rather than conversation starter. Also if anyone you know (including yourself) is in danger. Please contact authorities.
