I lived with my step dad for most of my childhood and during that time he used to verbally abuse me for many reasons mainly because he thought I was gay. he also dabbled in physical abuse for very minor things like for example loosing a sock I would get whooped and locked in my room so I couldn't eat dinner. He would also like punch me full force pretty often I wouldn't say full on physical abuse but he made my life pretty miserable I wouldn't be surprised if he's done more to me I would not be able to remember if he did. My mom (who he domesticly abused quite often) ended up taking us into an apartment where we still are now after cps got called. she has brought him over in the past which after I told her I wasn't comfortable with him anywhere near me and just recently she brought him Right outside of our place but she said it was OK because he wasn't inside (i obviously disagree becuase he was right next to our door i saw his car locked the door and had a panic attack). I just figured out she's been texting and calling him still. am I overreacting?? I get constant thoughts that I'm a lair but my brother and sister can back me up I never made anything up even if my mom wants to say I did. I have pretty severe anxiety and ptsd because of him I don't know why my mom even wants to see him she has so many people in her life better than that. no one in my family except my sister even cares to help me at all I want to run away but I have no idea where I would go anyway
