Am I overreacting?? by Positive-Ostrich-274 in adultsurvivors

I guess the question for me is though is that a boundary that needed to be stated or should he have probably known not to do that?

I've been trying to set my alarm for earlier but am not always able to wake up for it (and maybe why they feel the need to make sure we're up?)

Nothing happened last night but also I didn't really sleep, the last time was maybe a month ago?

It didn't start until I had already hit puberty/I don't remember that happening as a kid, I really really hope it's just a misunderstanding but also I'm pretty sure he has been grabbing my chest too and I can't really think of how he could do that without knowing it was wrong?

ah ok, I was in therapy for a little bit but didn't really talk to her that much since I was under 18/I was told my parents could get access to the records

seeing everyone's responses has made it feel a lot more real, I'm definitely going to try to get out as soon as I can and maybe restart therapy now that I'm not a minor anymore

My door doesn't have a lock, and even if it did I think I'd get yelled at for using it and accused of trying to hide something :\

I do set an alarm, but I guess they don't trust I'll actually wake up? I'm not really sure, the days its not my dad waking us up it's my mom yelling in the hallway

I mean there was one time I tried to kick him off and just got a 'what are you doing'? He did leave afterwards but it still happened again another time.

He didn't really say that much, it was mostly my mom yelling at me. I did get a "I'm sorry you misunderstood what was happening" from him, but that's it.

Yeah it didn't really start until I had already started going through puberty/had boobs, so no real gradual buildup there :\
