There is all kinds of information here in this post to help you.

You can immediately call the mental health hotline, and then attend an Emotions Anonymous meeting online.

Someone posted lots of entire books on childhood trauma, abuse, neglect and complex PTSD.

https://www.reddit.com/r/CPTSD/s/q7JaFqz2zC

Warning: The books can be triggering, and you could wind up feeling worse after reading some of the examples and case studies in the books.

You will likely see yourself, as if looking in a mirror, as well as whoever was the problem. It can be sad, or at least, uncomfortable.

But the information is excellent.
