I heard being abused as a child makes you more intelligent as an adult

I feel that my mom is a narcissist, but I'm not sure. My reasoning is based on all the a use she's out me through starting from since I was 5. The first instances was regarding the verbal abuse. My mom worked as a teacher (she was always nice tower students and was never abusive), and she dealt racism there which got her upset. All of that anger went out to me. She'd call me ...

Hey everyone I have a severe family problem. My niece who is 8 told my sister that my other sister's husband had inappropriate contact with her. She gave a pretty detailed story of what happened. Saying that when all the other kids were a sleep uncle Mike came out and made her go back to his bedroom. I told her I couldn't handle hearing the rest of it. Cps are involved now. The family is ...

Hi All,

I am starting to think as a young child (around age 3) I may have repressed at least some traumatic event with regards to sexual abuse. I do have strong memories of a distant cousin who was about 14 at the time abusing me and I remember that fairly well, but at night I often dream of a child singing a song. The song is very disturbing and when I wake up I ...

I found out that my little sister was sneaking her laptop in to her room at night and returning it to its normal spot before morning so I logged on one day to see what she was doing on it, turns out she's been looking up mainly hardcore bdsm porn and to a lesser extent non-consensual/rape stuff almost every night for several months now (which also explains why she's drop-dead exhausted every day). I'm getting ...

First please let me say thanks for taking the time to read this and I truly hope no one is going to feel like their troubles have been minimized by this. All of our abuse is valid and comparisons are not useful. What we experience as individuals is what matters.

I have read and heard much about how much more damaging psychological abuse is than physical abuse and have seen that there is much strong ...

I talked to a private investigator recently, and she said I might be adopted. it's very strange. I have hallucinations at night all the time. I don't know why. I don't like it at all.

hello. my name is wolf. im hoping members of this fourm can help me out by looking at this list of stuff thats been happening between my parents and me for years. i have a suspcioun it might be abusive, but am very uncertain (mainly because my parents label it "discipline" most of the time), and also becuase my parents are usually okay to me. the majority of these items are done by my father, ...

I am not going to go into exact detail of what I have experienced because I want to make things more concise. I am new here and I apologize if it is triggering in anyway. I wanted to share this with people I can relate too because I feel like I need to and I almost never tell anyone about my child abuse because I feel like I will put them in a weird position ...

I'm so confused - confused as to why my dad starts yelling about stupid trivial matters.
I am not exactly happy about my yelling back at him (means that I am no better than him), but it really was the first/second me I have stood up to him. My anger was over why he could accuse me of " misleading " him that my in-laws would say yes to their invitation to come to my ...
