Child Abuse Story From Unknown1

(Location Undisclosed)
I didn't call him dad; his name was HIM:
I could probably write a book, but no one would believe it. I grew up in large family of 8. We were called whores, fat asses, no good son-of-a-bitching brats. I can still hear him clearly: "You are just boarders in this house. You're here only to swab the deck. You brats are no good mother fucking son-of-a-bitches." Wow. Thanks "Him"; I mean dear old dad! I'm 38 and I still carry around the shame and embarrassment.
I was diagnosed Bipolar, but I don't have all the symptoms. Maybe it's post traumatic stress disorder. I get really depressed and cry 'cause I still remember all the pain I suffered as a child.
We moved 20 or more times. I quit school at 17 to escape. I went to college and obtained my LPN (Licensed Practical Nurse) license, but today I found myself crying over the past. It still haunts me.
I thought about committing suicide when I was 15 to get way from all the pain and yelling and screaming. They never told anyone that I had suicidal ideation 'cause they didn't believe in shrinks 'cause then his abuse might have been exposed.
I remember a night I was upset. He was a ragging alcoholic. I needed to study and he pulled all the fuses out of he fuse box and said, "If I hear a word from you fucking brats I will come up there and beat you." I got mad and threw my books down the steps. He tried to find me. I hid. I'd had enough. I said, "I don't even like you. Leave me alone. I wish I was dead." He looked at me and said, "I'll give you the fucking noose, you whore!" I tried to escape from the pain by going into a depression. To this day I have to fight going into my silent world!
We were thrown up in our rooms if we didn't clean. The house motto: No work No eat! He padlocked the fridge so we couldn't eat him out of house and home. He beat my mom, took us on hell rides on expressways when he was so drunk he couldn't even see, let alone drive. I could go on and on, but I just believe people should have to have a license to have children!
