I am 38 years old and cannot contact my family because my mother does
not believe me and my younger sister about what I finally told her about
in recent years - about what happened to us all those years ago with our
older brother and mum's boyfriend. (One of many boyfriends) She blames
us for our brother having to be in Australia and I feel I now have no-one.
My younger sister and I grew up in sheer hell. I absolutely hate and despise
my mother now. In fact all this has brought even more memories back for
me. I feel so lonely. I shouldn't because I am married with 2 beautiful
children. I think it is just Christmas time looming and everyone asks
what are you doing with your family on that day. I scream inside because
I can't tell them why I don't have anything to do with them. Instead I
smile and holdback all the tears. Even after all this time. So hello.
I have no idea what you have been through, but I think I just need
to get help putting all this stuff out the window. Sorry about this, but
there's not a whole lot of people one can turn to. Debbie.
