Impact of abuse
s blah blah s
- Jealous of separate friends becoming close
ive lost friends as a result
very hurt by friends getting on with each other. my first friends were at the age of 30 and i hated that they laughed with each other
didnt learn the love triangle as a toddler
- No connection to my younger years
I still struggle to relate to me as a child up to the age of ten or eleven. I have some snippets of memories, but they are isolated events.
Abusive treatement started when I was a baby and continued throughout my childhood. This sustained trauma would have led my brain to operate in survival mode, so the rational thinking and decision-making would probably not have occurred. I had no choice but to comply to survive. The brain therefore is disabled from creating a logical order of events and suppresses the traumatic memories.
- no relationship with siblings or mum
..
- blind in one eye
to be detailed
- no long-term friends outside of school hours
I remember having some friendships, but these were not sustained over years. I wasn't allowed to socialise with class mates outside of school. My father would get extremely upset if I went out, or would chase callers from the house. I thus only associated with other kids during school time. I was denied the pleasure of forming bonds with people, so I have no school friends in my adult life. I also still find it difficult to build trusting friendships.
The control is part of a paedophile's behaviour. By isolating me, this greatly reduces risk of me telling others about what happens at home, so the abuse is able to continue.

- fear of women
'im a man youre a woman'
- fear of children
their pure eyes would be adversely affected by my impurity
and i didnt have a healthy childhood to know how to be kind and nurturing to child me, let alone other children
NB: this can manifest for some by propogation of experience (going on to abuse children themself mirroring their experience) or extreme reversal ( not offering pure love, neglecting the child)
- poor facial recognition
not entirely sure why
