There are certainly quite a few bad experiences from my past and the way that i was brought up that contributed to my sp. My sister, brother and i have all suffered from some mental issue or another - we have a predisposition for mental illness from our father, making us more sensative to bad treatment. I feel nothing in the way of resentment towards him because of it - as it is completely beyond his control. Sometimes i have 'if only' thoughts and why couldn't things have been different / better for us - but honestly what's the point, it can't be changed. Certainly use your past to help move you forward - but don't hang on to it to keep you anchored down.
