Yes it most certainly did. It has taken me many many years to rise above the horrors of my childhood. I still have trust issues and I don't take what people say at face value
-
yes, because right now i am very shy and i dnt speak up for myself, and i let persons walk all over me. but am still learning to break out of my shyness.
-
yes ... it does, its made me nasty ... that and dissability ... but i think it was mostly my father
-
It destroyed me. The first incident beginning at about a year old/infancy, I never found out what life was like without abuse. While I am only just beginning to heal and recover the memories, it's safe to say that it basically destroyed and polluted every aspect of my life.
-
Yes :)
-
I only got verbal and emotional abuse...ONLY!(laughs dryly). Did it affect me? Oh yes. I went into a shell I didn't come out of for years, and, as a child, I was such an outgoing little thing. It also contributed to many an emotional breakdown, and an inability to deal with confrontational situations. I could go on for ages about the effects it had on me...but I have been able to deal with a lot of them, thanks to the love and support of my God and Saviour, Jesus Christ and of my husband. Jesus also worked in my mother over the last months of her life to bring her into relationship with Him, and from that, to realise what she had done and reconcile with me. That was the sweetest thing of all.

I was physically and verbally abused since I was born. (and they still do it today at the age of 37). It has made me NOT trust anyone, not want to get close to anyone for fear of getting hurt. I suffer clinical depression, and anxiety. I am unable to work because I have such low self esteem that I can't function at a job. I failed college because my parents daily let me know that I was born a failure and always will be" and that THEIR kids would NOT mess up. It has made me afraid to even attempt to try anything. Emotional abuse hasw destroyed every part of my life and my personality.
-
Yes. I was sexually, physically, and verbally abused, and It has affected me, more than anything ever has. I wouldn't be as screwed up now, and I would just be completely different. I wouldn't have a past that haunts me every day.
-
Endless Night Of A Childs' Cry I was thrown into a wall I was slammed into a door I was thrown into a room As he hit me more. I see no sun I see no light Only the darkness That comes with the night. Instead of of playing I sit in a room and cry And my only last wish..is to die. I wrote that while in a shelter in Pueblo CO at age 14 in 1997. Now, I am a proud husband and father. I am happy and healthy. You ask if it affected me, Yes. It taught me what not to do and how not to love.

Reading all of your responses made me sad. I'm very fortunate that I was not. ++ to all of you.
-
I was an abuser as a child... It defiantly has affected me because now I feel bad... today it makes me a better person over all
-
Yes, I was abused as a child but unlike the other readers I used it for the good. I was abused sexually, physically and verbally by my birth father. It took sometime but I forgave him and this to me made a world of difference. I now look at life as a gift and I am greatful for every day I do get to live. I am a very happy and joyful person. I feel that anyone that has been able to live through any kind of child abuse is here for a reason. I feel very blessed for all I have in life. I believe that when you have had such a bad childhood it can only go up from there. The choice is ours. We can either let our abuser run our adult life to or we can forgive and make the most life has to offer. We can never get our childhood back but we can take control of our adulthood.

Oh yes I am deadly as a result, I got upset about being attacked in mass by people so I learned tactics that would put them down and cause max. effect or stopping power. It is a odd world people think they can put their hands on you and not like a willing sex act and either attack you are try to violate your sexaul drive. Anyway It made me kind of an unforgiving person that when someone does touch me I will hurt them badly.
-
No, not in the slightest way. I don't even think about it except when someone brings it up, then I think about what I did to that bastards car, and it makes me laugh!
