My ex bf was a victim of a crime years ago, he got his head bashed against the toilet and the side of the tub several times
(hard surfaces)
his memory was very weak, but I loved him so much, I just accepted that he could not help it, and dealt with it, thought when he asked me the 3 or 4 th time, I became emotionally exhauseted over a period of time
he remembers all the rules of the road, appts. Usually,etc
but if he asks me something,about what is in the fridge, or where I got an article of clothing, of he claims he never seen this or that in the house beffore, and if I said, I told you, he got so adament, that he was right and I was the crazy one.
He has little impulse control, when he gets angry, it is over the top, he is in his forties and acts like a teenager or younger when upset
he can be an up and down emotional basket case, crying like a 4 year old hysterically, snot coming out of his nose, and 20 mintues later talking about poiitics, science, a reallly super intellligent guy he can be
yet I became embarrassed and sometimes fearful when he would fly off the handle, one time I thought he was a real looney, if I did not know him, I would run like the wind from him
but his anger was toward someone else, so I let it go
i am sorry I am wriiting a book, I guess I am still upset...
What can having your head being slammed against really hard surfaces repeatedly do to one's personality?
Thanks,
