This is one of those situations when there is no real 'right' thing to do. It sounds like the abuse your dad put you through is long gone now, and as you said there's nothing you can do to prove it.

If he is leaving you alone now, there isn't really much to do except stay away if you're uncomfortable around him. I don't know how old you are, but it's only a matter of a couple years until you have the power to move on with your life in any direction you choose.

In the short term, it's best to try to push it to the back of your mind, and not think about it. If you find it's too overwhelming, it may be a good idea to find someone you can openly talk to about it with - whether that be a school counselor or another trusted adult. Whatever happens, make sure you have some way to get the feelings out, so they don't sit and fester within your mind.

It's hard to have to think back on thoughts that pain you so much, especially when you don't have anyone in your life to help you share the burden. Just remember that VT is always here. Don't ever be afraid to get something out of your system. :)

Ster, wow.

I have to agree with Rex. If he's not bothering you now, you have to put those memories into the past, and leave them there. You have to try your best to forget.

Ditch the past and look the future. Your future is bright Sterling, very bright. I won't let anything fall apart, and that's a promise.

Don't worry about the past. What's done is done. If anything happens again in the future, report it to the proper authorities, or tell me, and I'll report it somehow...

I'm here for you Ster, always and forever. ^_^

I always feel that people should confront their demons or they will only come out at a later date. Burying things away is never a good idea as they will usually just end up eating away at you.

Personally I would suggest that you speak to a councilor or your doctor, they will most likely help you to come to terms with the events in your past and advise the best method of action.

I will agree with the above poster saying look to the future though, you have your whole life ahead of you and it is bound to be filled with good things.

i would suggest therapy, dont push em in the back of your mind, i mean so to speak yes, but not completely, therapy will help you come to terms, it sounds like your dad is a real douchebag, he may need help to
best of luck to you
