I feel so hurt! Feeling very traumatised again. Feeling worthless and everything thanks to my “dad” being so cruel and saying the most hurtful things.

Is this a follow on from your holiday from hell you've been on?
I used to have a lot of stuff like that from my Dad, the cruelty of those hurtful comments feels unbeievable, like stabs to the heart, it feels deliberate and designed to destroy you and leave a quivering wreck.
I think it's domestic violence, just because he's your dad and not a partner dosen't mean its not domestic violence, check out some of the DV charities and get some help, advice and support from them. Where's your Mum in all this?

Yep thats the holiday! What was meant to be a chill in a beautiful paradise turned out to be worse than hell! I completely agree with you about the violence, all I get is the “I’m your dad” excuse! I’m not a child anymore but he treats me like one and speaks to me like one and if I don’t do what he wants I get so badly told off it’s super embarrassing! If I don’t want him to touch me he get aggressive and then like forces me to hug him, even in bed. I say that’s inappropriate but he says “I won’t do anything to do I’m your dad” that’s not the point! It’s his way or no way and says if I don’t get my own way I get stroppy but it’s literally the other way around! All he does is rub in how I’m not rich or nice looking compared to others and how thick I am. If I was better looking I’d not have been mistaken for his wife, and if I had qualifications he’d appreciate and be proud of me more. Well sorry but I’m not Rachel Riley!
As for my mum, she wasn’t here on holiday as she is going away with her (nice) sister and her family on Friday for 11 days so she doesn’t need the jet lag! I’ve explained all to her and she has also tried to explain but it’s all to no avail when it comes to explaining to my “dad”. And with other fights again it’s been when my mum hasn’t been around because she’s been looking after her mum or again been on holiday with her sister etc. she was also staying with her mum for a while when she took a nasty injury and needed a smaller place to get around so again fights with dad happened those times too.
