[quote=Anonymous]OP, I think many things here can be true.

Your feelings of being violated are your feelings. That said, feelings are not always facts.

Medical care has changed so much in 25 years, including treatment and understanding of things like encorpresis and withholding. Also, at the time, people were much less likely to question a doctor’s instructions or diagnosis. It would especially not have expected a single mother with a child who had already used other means to help to question what she had to do. She honestly did what she had to do in what could have been a life altering condition.

Now, are you in therapy now? I get the feeling there is much more to your feelings of being violated, especially considering your original issue was one of controlling your pelvis and anus, and this sounds like this area continues to be of grave concern for your mental health and control. I I don’t want to put ideas where they have no place, but is it possible you suffered earlier traumas in that area that caused the withholding and then refusal of treatments?

Please seek some professional assistance to help you resolve this anger and feeling of violation as I trust it affects other areas in your life.

Good luck.
