I'm not sure if I was abused, but when I was younger my dad would often get angry at me and say disparaging things, as well as physically beat me. I remember being afraid of him.

We are both completely cool now, but I often have negative-self talk, and am often pessimistic. I'm not sure if this stems from when I was a kid but I think it might have impaired my ability to form relationships.

That is absolutely possibly. It might help to talk about this with him... if you are both on good terms now. Or it might be preferable to talk to others- friends, family, people on here, or even a therapist.

I'm not sure if it stems from that, or other life experiences, or both. It's internal so I don't know if it can be fixed.
thanks for the reply

You can always fix yourself... it just takes a bit of introspection and some honesty with yourself. I guess recognising the problem is the first step, then talking about it is the second... so you’re already on step 3 :D

Once you reach 100 posts, feel free to pm me (or anyone) to chat... but also try talking to people you know in real life :)

Sorry to say that but I don't see the problem if your day beats you if you made something bad. Of course like you say "angry" He could made something that he shouldn't have do
