I really thought that I was the only one who kept thinking about the past. The worst part for me is that I have missing chunks of childhood. My sister and I were both abused. My parents will never admit it. My life is so screwed up. I don't even know where to start to fix it. I think about suicide several times a day. My husband died May 31, 2011. He was the only one who ever gave me unconditional love. My parents never loved me. Why they had children is beyond me. I am so glad I found this website.

I do hope you seek out a support system while you try to heal yourself. It is possible to heal to the point where you don't think of it every day. It is hard work, but know it can be done if you learn to be kind to yourself. My prayers are with you. Lindagail Hi Matthew,
