I'm new here but I thought I might post what bought me here.
My parents. Both mother and stepfather were US Marines. Stepdad used to molest me (kissing me with tongue) and belt whipped me from age 4 to 7. (He probably would have kept on if it wasn't for him and Mother getting a divorce. Me and sisters went to live with Mother). He would force me to take off all my clothes to belt whip me. Mother belt whipped me from age 4 to 17 and she would threaten me, pop me in the face, and cuss at me. She is very unstable and volatile. I developed childhood PTSD from the abuse. Mother is also a drunk who ALWAYS used to force me and my sisters to go with her to parties at her friends' house where the adults were drinking, LOUD, and slapping dominos on the table. That is not good for a child with PTSD who needs a safe, quiet place to be alone. So I developed social anxiety disorder. I also developed binge eating disorder and would hide food under my pillow as a child. I also have super poor impulse control. I joined the US Marines as well and was in for 9 years but my time was marked by driving long distances (i.e I drove 360 miles round-trip to watch a movie and get a bite to eat. I drove 300 miles to Pismo Beach and spent only about 30 minutes there going to the bathroom and getting a bite to eat. Driving, so so much driving), spending most of my paycheck on scratchcards and the casino ($100's every two weeks), eating enormous amounts of food and drink, and being reclusive and uncooperative at work to where they removed me from my job and I would just show up to work and go to psychiatrist appointments, read, or just sit and stare at the walls while they were processing me for a medical discharge. I've got to live with the memories of the abuse for the rest of my life and the so many bad decisions I've made. I've been homeless several times and have no control over my poor impulse control. It runs me. Plus, I was diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder which is like schizophrenia. I started seeing and hearing strange things starting in October 2015. I want to die so bad. I'm just afraid of the pain involved.
