[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Therapy should help you move forward, though I would never do it myself. I am from an abusive culture where beatings and public humiliation are common, and not necessarily from parents but from teachers or any adult who deemes it their business. I drink a lot to cope.[/quote] Op here and I am also from a different culture, one that allows for more of an authoritarian style of parenting and physical punishment. And growing up, I actually took some comfort in that maybe this was the norm. But then in my adolescence, I started realizing that our parents may have been on the extreme end of the spectrum with how strict and abusive they were. So this was always kept as a shameful secret.[/quote]
