It brought back some things for me… I am so sorry you had to go through what you did. I understand exactly how you felt as I had a similar childhood. Mother was always cold to me and worshipped “Him”. She let him use me as a sex toy and all his dirty friends – anything to please “him”. There were no boundaries – ever. I also hid to get a safe respite to suck my thumb in peace but I always curled into a ball under my bed in the far corner. Anything to get away.
