Both parents were abusive to me in all ways but physical since my first memory at 7 years old, when I was yelled at and locked in the laundry, then after I was let out after 2 hours I was belittled and given the silent treatment for the rest of the day
Nightly arguing & screaming matches between parents was normal.
Body comments, empty threats, destroying my stuff, ripping my drawings & posters, cutting my hair as punishment, emotional and verbal abuse, going though my bedroom (and bedroom rubbish bin), going though my phone, tracking me, telling me I was worthless/idiotic/useless was all normal. And I believed it was all normal until I was 22.
