Oh, sorry, my present tense was misleading. Yeah, I got out of there and I don't speak to either of my parents or most of my family any more. It took until I was 25 to grasp that I had been abused and become physically and mentally ill enough from all this to be a shoe-in for SSI, but still :)



I tried to kill myself multiple times (put myself in a coma once) and part of moving in with abusive boyfriend was to get away from home. Turns out my sister did the same thing, but instead of running-to-batterer and suicide attempts she did running-to-batterer and heroin addiction in high school, which my mom ignored.



I'm on the healing path though. Even going no-contact has made me less crazy and miserable. Part of that is that I find it difficult to shut up about it, so apologies
