Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
when I was little a friend of my moms would try to beat confessions out of me, trying to get me to admit I did things that her own son was responsible for, she would hold me underwater in the bathtub till I nearly drowned and she would repeat this till I confessed. could this cause mental or physical damage that would affect you six or seven years later?
I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. You are right. Such traumatic experiences in childhood leads to anxiety episodes in future. In childhood human mind is under development. Childhood has been classified into several stages of development by several eminent psychologists. Certain predesigned developments are supposed to happen every stage. If a child is deprived of any such development, there is trauma later.
I think you should be more clear here. Please post a direct question to me in this website. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I want to know what are all things you are experiencing, There are so many possibilities. Be open. I feel there is something negative in future for you. Please do not ignore these symptoms. Then, after learning you, I shall prescribe some psychotherapy techniques which should help you cure your condition further.
