It definitely resonated with me as a young girl. I was so angry with everyone. Nobody listened to me and I was forced to go back to “him” over and over to be more hurt. I wanted to die but I lashed out at things and creatures instead of hurting myself. I re-enacted the abuse with my toys. I also had tantrums of epic proportions which is why the adults around me restrained me all over again in elementary school. Growing older, I found more healthy outlets for my anger as I put everything into sports.
