Child Abuse Story From Name Undisclosed2

by Name Undisclosed
(Location Undisclosed)




I don't know what I'm doing: 
I don't know why I bother suddenly. I don't even know where to start. Firstly, my whole childhood I lived in another house. My old house, I can't remember anything good happening there. I was looking through pictures of my old house, and I keep getting flashbacks. Flashbacks that my sister confirmed were true.

My maid abused me and my sister for years without my parents knowing. She locked us up naked in a room in my house which we used to say was haunted. I don't remember it, just screaming and banging on the door and laughing. My sister told me what happened. I got locked in alone once. I remember crying and banging. Again my sister told me that situation. I also got beaten up regularly by my sister. Only recently, she stopped.

My father used to beat me up. He stopped a few years ago. He'd beat me for whatever my sister did wrong, because he didn't dare touch her. But now we're okay.

My sister stopped hitting me a few years ago. But she always puts me down when she's angry. Recently, she hit me. I ran away from home. I think I have anger-management problems. I get very very angry very fast, if not angry, very very sad. I don't let people see me cry. I've felt weak all my life. Because I'm small. So I don't cry in front of anyone.

Recently, this weird flashback has been coming. I heard my god-brother's name after so long, which brought on the flashback of him doing stuff to me. Sexual stuff. I don't think it's true. Maybe I'm imagining? This flashback is very familiar. Like I had it before. I don't trust myself.

I'm a very humorous wild person. But I get very very moody and reserved. These things started happening after my sister hit me recently. It's like she brought all the old thoughts back. I feel like no one loves me. Except this one girl. I don't understand why she does though. I always scream at her. I don't like people touching me. I feel weird. Was this from abuse? Or am I just some stupid over imaginative girl?

I rarely talk about my feelings, cus I don't like feeling weak, so this is hard. I just wanna know if this is abuse?

A questioning and confusing time...
by: Darlene Barriere - Webmaster

Yes, it's very possible that what you are going through now is as a result of various forms of abuse. The human mind is highly complex. As you grow and mature, you become more aware and understand more about right and wrong, which in turn may also bring about more memories of what happened to you in the past. It can be very disturbing to suddenly start remembering. Add to that, all that is happening to your body as an adolescent and the experiences that you are now engaged in; it can be a very confusing time in your life.

I recently wrote a reply to another contributor, 15-year-old Megan who asked: Why am I only now bothered by possible past sexual abuse? You might find my reply helpful at Some clarifications.

Regardless of what did or did not happen to you in your past, you are having difficulty coping now. You are troubled and very unhappy. I strongly recommend some form of counselling in order to help you with the turmoil you are currently facing. I don't know where you live, so I cannot offer a resource number. Try talking to a school counsellor; perhaps s/he can help with available resources. Check your local listings to learn if there are community resources available to you. Also, consider doing an Internet search using your country of original and the keywords "child welfare services." You're worth getting help for yourself.

Your not imagining it.
by: Linda

Just because someone who hits you stop for a awhile, doesn't make it okay. You are too graphic with your abuse flashbacks to be imagining it. You just buried those awful memories and your god-brother's name brought them back out. The maid, your sister, your father, and god-brother should all be jail. You did nothing wrong, you were just a child. Seek counceling and don't feel like you owe those people anything. Good luck to you.

You aren't alone
by: George

I just wanted to let you know that you are not alone...I myself was abused by my father and brother whilst my mother did nothing. I've had a lot of anger to overcome.
