My father was abusive and I had to distance myself from him for safety and mental health. My sister is just like him and I had to do the same with her. I feel no guilt or regrets. I've been a victim and now I'm free. People that need to hurt others are sad and angry when they can't. So now I'm not the one who's sad and angry, no longer the victim. Freedom isn't free unfortunately but it's priceless. I don't have that many years left but they're mine. I take no meds now. I fixed the cause instead. Best of luck to everyone.
