Mine varies from like 4 to -5, with random flucturations into -7 to -8. I’d say it averages out at like -1.

    Lots of physical violence, screaming and yelling

    threats to kill me

    constant criticism about literally everything, and having to walk on eggshells my entire childhood and living in a constant state of extreme stress

    Omg I feel this comment. That’s about how I feel during my -7 to -8 moments. Thank you for sharing, I kinda feel less alone now.

      You definitely don’t need to feel alone, there are legions of us out there. Our experience is not uncommon. I’m sorry that you had to go through that. I hope you can find some peace, and that you can reconcile (if desired) with your parents. It took a long time, but I eventually did and things are a lot better now.
