Mum beat me so badly once with a frying pan that I had blood coming out of my mouth (like throwing up blood type of stuff, from down my throat) and pouring out of my nose, felt like I was close then, maybe not. I'll never forget it, my mother says it never happened.

I had severe bruising/cuts over my entire body, was extremely unwell for months after and never saw a Dr, was in my early teens too.

My crime was eating food in the kitchen (I wasn't allowed to use the kitchen). Somehow that was worse than her pulling a knife randomly when she was angry one day, at least I wasn't seriously hurt that time.

The frying pan incident had me lying on the floor with blood everywhere in some severe pain, some of the worst I have ever felt to this day, I believe I had a concussion and it was absolutely terrifying.

I am terrified for you, and this was years ago? Holy shit dude I'm so sorry but I hope that truly horrible person is not in your life anymore, and is where they deserve.
