tw:// abuse
so hey guys, if yall dont know yet, im atikah, 15 and i am a victim of abuse.
i was first abused at 6, my mum poured boiling hot water on my skin (the whole kettle) and called it an "accident", causing it to tear. being 6 at that time, i obviously believed her words but it got worst, she would hit me, force me to do chores and verbally abuse me.
it all stopped when i was 10. she was much nicer when i grew up but things got messy when i was 13.
and back when i was 6, i always believed my mum acted harshy towards me as she was still hurt from my sister& #39;s death. my sister died at 17 from a brain tumour.

at 13, i was m*lested by my uncle. i was afraid and puzzled. everything was right until i told my mum i got m0lested by my uncle. she went insane. she called me a liar and even took my uncle& #39;s side. that sick bastard denied what he did to me. she started ab*sing me again.
my dad was rarely in my life. he and my mother argued alot. he used to have an affair (idk what happened to that) but my parents are d*vorced and uncontactable. im only 15, i didnt get enough love and affection. i feel left out and empty.
after my parents divorced, my uncle (who m0lested me) took me in. i was afraid but his wife was really nice so i didnt worry much but boy was i wrong.
she abused me as well. she never allows me to study. she claims that & #39;im a girl& #39; and & #39;i should do the chores& #39; i cook, i clean and i do everything in HER house. all she does is work and gossip on the phone when she comes home.
she hits me for no reason too. i remember this instance vividly when i failed my exam by a maek. she hit me and my arms were badly bruised.(note that im 4& #39;9 and 43kg and she is 5& #39;9 and 79kg) so i cannot fight back unless she was my size.
and she would also call me names like "b1tch" "d0g" "maid" "h1deous" "ugly" "f4t" and this causes my self esteem to go down. many of my classmates make fun of me,calling me names like & #39;fatherless& #39; & #39;girl with a dead sister& #39; & #39;emo ass& #39; & #39;parentless& #39; . i warn you, DO NOT. do this.
it hurts me when people do this to me. it is really disrespectful. it should not be classified as a joke. the lack of affection i recieve does not help with my self-esteem either and PINNING ME DOWN wont help me too.
i hate the way i look thanks to my aunt. resuming, thanks to @easymoneylogue @916frosty_ and @laflamious , they encouraged me to call up the hotline and to speak up about my situation. i was nervous at first but i told myself it was for the best.
im currently on my way to live with my foster parents (settling papers etc) and they seem like really genuine and kind. calling the hotline was life-changing. they were nice and welcoming. of course i felt hesitant and a tinge of regret.
but i told myself that i need to put myself in this situatuon because it is not healthy for me to stay like this.
it only took a day to find me a set of foster parents. i was really excited when they said they found them for me.

im currently meeting them, theyre talking to some people idk who.. but and being open was really hard for me. but im really happy to say that they have decided to sue my previous guardians and luckily i have proof of the marks my aunt made. (i took pictures after she hit hit me)
if you know someone or you are a victim of abuse, talk to someone or try to help them. like me, i didnt have anyone but my best friend. she tried helping me but i declined. i was scared back then.
but after what @916frosty_ told me, it made me realise that living like this wasnt goof for me. i need to make a change. i am also going to go thru therapy to cope with any trauma i have. if you need someone to talk to, dms are open <3 u are not alone. :)
lastly i wanna thank @916frosty_ @easymoneylogue ajd @laflamious for helping me through this in such a short time. yall changed my life. nay good energy come your way. words cannot describe how thankful i am to meet yall... :& #39;)
