We all start here, I believe.
⠀
"I don't know if it was that bad..."
⠀
That question bridges our inner feelings of knowing something was up, but we tend to confuse ourselves for not having the following factors to guide us:
⠀
We don't have a frame of reference about a healthy family system - only hints.
⠀
We don't have specific help to guide us through figuring out what is abuse.
⠀
We don't have the family we grew up being real or honest about what the family is really like.
⠀
We don't have the support to go through the dark period of admitting to ourselves that we weren't safe as children.
⠀
But you can ask yourself, would you put a child through what you went through? Your answer may be what you need to start your recovery.

What do you think?
