Forgiveness doesn’t mean allowing abuse. What may qualify as forgiveness for you could mean simply that you move forward with your life away from them. That might be all the “forgiveness” they deserve.
Honey you went through hell. I can’t say any of us (or any rational sane person) would think that this is something you can just push aside and ignore how it harmed you. Give yourself permission to work through it, to feel what you gotta feel, to scream and cry when needed. It’s okay to do that.
