I Am Chantou, These Are My Thoughts [These Are My Thoughts]

I need to share something so those who know me.. get a little more who I am.

When in was 3yrs, my birth mom said we were going on a trip, just me and her. I was really happy, because her boyfriend who was my 1 month old baby sister's daddy waa bad to me.. he scared me as he was beating me up. My mom waa was really busy with my baby sister and my 9yrs sister too.

So we left ans stopped in front of a big building, there waa lots of kids play g around.. we entered those big doors and mom talked to a lady. She then came back to me saying you wait here, go play with the friends, I will me right back...

I waited for her almost a yr..ahe had just dropped me off at the orphanage. And went back home ro take care of my siblings.

At 4 was adopted by the wrong family ... suffered rape 9 yrs by many ppl.. beat up.. bullied.. emotional abuse.. who h lead to this...

This causes me to have tge orphan syndrome
Heres what it is:

Symptoms may be physical or mental, and may extend into adulthood and perhaps throughout a person's life.

Alienation from the environment - withdrawal from social activities, resistance towards others. I am a scared girl and I do fear ppl in public places a lot

Guilt - the child believes that he/she did something wrong that caused the abandonment (often associated with depression). remain as an adult, I always think I did wrong, I'm not good enough, I'm unworthy of everything

Fear and uncertainty - "clinginess", insecurities.[7] massively clingy sadly, and my heart say one thing while my head tries to tell me something else


Sleep and eating disorders - malnutrition, starvation, disturbed sleep, nightmares.[7]
insomnia, I used to starve and suffered bulimia. Now I barely eat, I cook, I love too, but after a few bites, I can't eat no more

Physical ailments - fatigue, drug and alcohol abuse, anxiety, depression, lack of energy and creativity, anger, grief.[7]
thankfully, I never touched drugs nor alcohol, but I suffer depression, anxiety, panic attack, I feel unloved all the time, I cry always for all and nothing, I have no confidence at some point, my self esteem can raise up to go right down within 5 minutes

But this also bring the fear of being unloved and abandoned..

If someone tells me I'll be there at 9pm

At 8h45 I'll start looking around
At 8h50 why are they not here
At 9h00 ok not here I did something bad
At 9h05 I start stressing.. ok the left..im no good
At 9h15 now I can start crying.. I beat up myself it mu fault. I was bad..
At 9h30 ok that's it that they don't care.. they left me.. I'm unworthy.. im nothing..

It goes on and on.. and I cant
Stop it I tried.. I'm better than I was.. but it's been like this forever .. it also made me a very jealous person.. by fear of losing the ppl i care about..as i never been loved from birth till a few yrs ago..

So please if you care bare with me.. if i start to freak and act differently... it may be related

Thank you

What a sad story, Chantou.
That must be so difficult to deal with.
I was also adopted ( as a baby ) but I have no recollection of my early childhood.

I hope you understand that nothing that happened in your childhood was ever your fault. Children deserve to be loved and protected by those who brought them into this world, sadly your mom wasn't like that and my wish is that you find someone who loves you unconditionally just as you are. Blessed Be.

I know now it was not. But at that time I did not. When I was 8 or o I was sitting in the bathroom counter and asked my mom why they adopted me.. the answer i got was..

Your brother was always playing at the neighbor.. we wanted a son to be home.. we thought of a dog but thout a sister or brother would be better.. you were there..

So i replaced a dog
@Chantou: Oh dear, how can people be so dense ? That is wrong on so many levels (((((hugs))))

@Underconstruction: yeah well that's the ppl who raised me.. I came out not that bad I think thanks to myself and my inner strength of wanting to survive and life and get the fuck out of there
@Chantou: Kudos to you.That takes a lot of courage.

@Underconstruction: but im sure I'm not the only one.. many suffer from their lives. Each pain is diff. I'm lucky I was strong enough.. some have less chance. I will never say my life is worse than another cause it's not true as we all deal.differently with pain and struggle and each has a diff degree to cope... we are all strong in our own journey
@Chantou: True, You are not alone and each one of us have our own luggage to carry but some are more determined to make it against the odds.
