I strongly recommend some form of counselling in order to help you deal with the repercussions of coming from such an abusive environment. What happened to you as a child does not have to continue to haunt and affect you, but you must reach out for the help you need first. Your mother was a sex offender; and she used your vulnerability for her gratification. You most definitely need to address that. Thank you for sharing your story with my visitors and me.

Great Martin you have acknowledged the Value on Darlen's site for you and all her many visitors which includes me: As always Darlene has personalised your horrific abuse at the hands of your weird and sicko of a mother: Parent's who should never have children: They both did you and your sister an injustice by the abuse they perpetrated on you both: You now realize you were abused by sicko's; Let go Martin: you have a loving family around you but you don't have to let you abuse effect you or them haunt you anymore: Counselling is the better way forward for you to begin with: Your honesty to the level you felt you could relate all that happened you is a first step to you relating all to a counsellor: It is amazing but I too was into self beating myself especially my buttocks with instruments to re-enact the pain of a spanking/beating on me as a child: Once I told a counsellor I moved on, copped on, He said it was a natural re-action but not the way to help the healing process of the physical abuse on me as a child: It worked for me Martin, I am sure it is the way forward for you too: LOVE is at the center of it all: Love yourself let the real and beautiful you let go: so you can trully love your good wife and family: Live well: Laugh alot: Love much: be gentle and kind to yourself: Breathe in positivity as you live your daily life to the full: Let go Martin: Take Darlene's loving affirming advice in her comment to you and all who love you for who you are in their lives today

embrace your inner child
by: Chanelle

Dear Martin,
There is nothing more excruciating that being abused by a mother.
Mother should be symbolic of protection, validation, unconditional love.
Your mother didn't just fail to protect or embrace you as a child, she abused the very essence of what a mother means...
It must be so hard to trust others, so confusing to differentiate the genuine from the fake...for you the past isn't the past, it is the present...
I myself am struggling to let go of the need to obtain my mother's approval, to let go of the daily flashbacks, to caress my inner child.... in no way, am i comparing your pain to pain...everyone's situation is individual...
All i can say is allow yourself to feel, to feel everything,,,shattered dreams, lost childhood, suppressed anger, suppressed resentment, loss and even self-love.....
best of luck on your journey towards healing
Chanelle

People of the Lie
by: Anonymous

Dear Martin,
What happened to you was demonic. You mother was evil. So was your father. They did things very cleverly, almost as if required, or under some scope of "professional duty" as to evade detection. These are demonic people. They are the most difficult to detect because they wear so many masks of sanity. They literally abuse you with a smile and expect you to feel good about the abuse. This is beyond mental illness. Mentally ill people are actually less benign. Evil, demonically controlled people are the most pernicious and must be aggressively handled as in tape them, gather evidence and expose, expose, expose because they are masters of deception. Liars, just like the father of lies, who controls them and uses them to do his sick will. Ironically, when you are targeted by these types of people, it's because what is IN them, sees what is IN you--and they hate it. God has his eyes on you. You most likely belong to him, and their spirit knew this. I strongly advice you to seek God on this matter and find who you really are in His love and strength. I'm sorry you had to go through this, but what satan intended for evil, GOD intends and can turn around for GOOD. And He will. He can restore ALL that the locusts have eaten in your life. You can find the hope, healing and love and sound mind you desperately are seeking.
