Feeling really sad and alone. Someone i respect said childhood

Feeling really sad and alone. Someone i respect said childhood trauma is like having a limb anputated. As much as you want to regrow that part of yourself, you never will ge able to do so. The trauma will always be there. I just find myself thinking the hateful words my mom said to me at even a young age..i always wanted her to. "take it back" please" say you are sorry or you didnt mean it You were j ust angry or stressed." Those words never came ànd my dad stood by doing nothing. Anyway, i feel like i am not reparable. I deel alone and different.i am getting older and it feels like death will be the only way to end the struggle. I ferl a little angry that my whole life was damaged. Just really sad and feeling i can never overcome this.

One minute at a time. Hang in there.

I hear the deep pain in what you shared, and I want you to know you’re not alone in feeling this way. What happened to you wasn’t fair, and it makes sense that you’re still carrying that weight. You are not beyond repair, even if it feels that way right now. Healing might not erase the past, but it can help lighten the burden little by little. Please keep reaching out and leaning on others who care. You deserve peace and compassion.

I know for me I to rework my steps thoroughly. Resentments are the number one offender for us. My perceptions changed and have been more peace.
