My mother is my childhood abuser without going into a book of details she mentally and physically (not sexually) abused me throughout childhood. I've long accepted that she will not admit or take any accountability for her actions to the point of justification of stating verbally to me she "tripped" when she barged into my room opening my door running to the bed jumping up into the air kneeing my in the side of the ribs grabbing my arm and holding me there all whole screaming at the top of her lungs... as stated I've accepted a long time ago she will never admit any wrong doings however her verbalizing her justificating "tripping" hasn't quite sat well with me. I'm not even sure what I am looking to get out of this other than to vent in what I find a safe space.
