Documentation - Later Stage, some earlier - Incomplete

 Comprehensive Health Summary & Action Plan


IMPORTANT: Scope and Limitations of This Document

This document is incomplete by necessity.


The health issues, abuse, and interconnected damages described here span my entire lifetime - from forced childhood medication through decades of compounding effects to the current severe pelvic floor dysfunction. The full story includes thousands of details across multiple decades that cannot all be captured in a single document.


What this document covers:


  • Primary focus on current pelvic region dysfunction (the most recent and severe manifestation)
  • Key patterns connecting childhood trauma, altered movement patterns, and current symptoms
  • Immediate self-care strategies and documentation of systemic failures


What this document does NOT yet include:


  • The decades of details between early childhood medication effects and the apartment reinforcement period
  • Countless other physical, psychological, and somatic effects that developed over time
  • The full timeline of abuse, medical trauma, and compensatory patterns
  • Many other body systems and symptoms beyond the pelvic focus
  • The complete scope of how everything interconnects


Why start with the pelvic focus:

The pelvic floor dysfunction represents some of the latest and most severe repercussions I’m facing. It’s affecting daily function (bowel movements, urination, pain with standing/walking, clothing constraints) in ways that are impossible to ignore. Starting here doesn’t mean it’s the only problem or even the root problem - it’s simply the most acute manifestation demanding attention right now.


The absence of details is not an absence of problems. This is a starting point for documentation, not a complete account.---Core Understanding: The Interconnected Nature of Your Conditions


Root Causes

  1. Childhood forced medication - caused psychological, physical, and somatic effects that persist today
  1. Weight distribution problems likely started EARLIER than pelvic pain - may have begun with lower back pain years before
  • You felt for a long time that weight was being “held” or “constricted” in the wrong areas
  • The compensatory patterns were already developing before the apartment situation
  • The ~10 years above someone unable to put full weight down REINFORCED an already existing pattern
  • Lower back pain was an early warning sign of improper weight distribution through the kinetic chain
  1. Nearly 10 years of altered walking patterns - living above someone, conditioned to not put full weight through feet/legs
  • This compounded and locked in the pre-existing compensation
  1. Ongoing family abuse and control - creating chronic stress, lack of bodily autonomy
  • Parents responsible for initial harm (forced medication as child)
  • Ongoing gaslighting and denial of your reality
  • Years of documented texts explaining pain, met with denial and opposite responses
  • You can physically FEEL tightening in pelvic and penile region when speaking to them or being gaslit
  • This proves the trauma response is somatically stored in these exact areas
  • The abuse isn’t just historical - it’s actively maintaining the physical dysfunction
  1. Systemic medical abandonment - refused care despite referrals, no access to appropriate specialists

How Everything Connects


The Central Pattern: Loss of Grounding (Earlier Than Initially Thought)

Timeline revision: The weight distribution problems likely started BEFORE the apartment situation


Early stage - Lower back pain:


  • You’ve had a long-standing sense that weight was being held or constricted in wrong areas
  • Lower back pain emerged first - this is often the first sign of improper weight distribution
  • When feet/legs don’t properly accept and distribute load, the back compensates
  • Possible causes of initial compensation:
  • Childhood medication effects on nervous system/muscle tone
  • Early trauma responses causing protective postures
  • Physical constraints or conditions not yet identified


What happens with chronic lower back compensation:


  • Body shifts weight distribution patterns to avoid pain
  • Pelvis tilts to protect the back
  • Core muscles begin chronic gripping
  • Gait changes subtly at first
  • Pelvic floor recruited as part of core stabilization strategy


Apartment phase - Pattern becomes locked in:


  • The ~10 years of not being able to put full weight down didn’t CREATE the pattern
  • It REINFORCED and LOCKED IN an already developing compensation
  • Made it so severe and habitual that it persists even after leaving
  • The nervous system had 10 years to make this “normal”


Why this matters:

The dysfunction is more complex and longer-standing than just the apartment years. This explains why it’s so resistant to change - the pattern has deeper roots.


Biomechanical Cascade:


  • Walking became toe/forefoot dominant or “tiptoeing”
  • Hip flexors and calves chronically engaged to keep you “light”
  • Pelvis tilted/shifted to redistribute weight away from normal ground contact
  • Core muscles chronically gripping to help you stay “suspended”
  • Glutes deactivated - can’t fire properly without pushing into ground
  • Pelvic floor chronically tight - part of the core stabilization system that never learned to release


The same pelvic floor muscles control bowel AND urinary function AND erectile function:


  • External urethral sphincter, bulbospongiosus, pelvic floor diaphragm all work together
  • When these muscles can’t relax properly for bowel movements, they also can’t relax properly for complete urination
  • Result: incomplete bladder emptying, urine trapped in urethra, positional dependence to try to release it
  • Walking with trapped urine painful because movement irritates already sensitized tissues
  • Bulbospongiosus and ischiocavernosus muscles (wrap around base and shaft of penis) control erection by compressing veins
  • When chronically tight: they trap blood in penis → persistent partial erection/engorgement
  • This is NOT arousal - it’s mechanical compression from muscle spasm
  • Creates chronic discomfort, hypersensitivity, and compounds clothing/temperature issues

Why This Affects Multiple Body Regions

PELVIC FLOOR DYSFUNCTION:


  • Chronic tension from years of holding yourself up
  • Muscles that should relax during bowel movements are stuck in a contracted/dysregulated state
  • Pelvic floor dyssynergia - paradoxical contraction when you try to bear down
  • The “snapping” response: at threshold, muscles spasm instead of relaxing
  • This spasm triggers urethral sphincter → painful penile response and involuntary urination
  • Connected muscles: puborectalis, external anal sphincter, urethral sphincter, bulbospongiosus (at penis base)
  • CRITICAL PATTERN: Standing makes it worse
  • The longer you stand, the more symptoms worsen
  • Standing activates the compensatory pattern - pelvic floor grips harder to stabilize
  • You can feel “tightness there” and something wrong in how weight distributes when standing
  • This confirms the pelvic floor is working as a compensatory stabilizer because proper grounding through feet/legs isn’t happening
  • Relief cycle after bowel movements:
  • Can get relief after pooping, especially when you get more complete evacuation
  • BUT if you stand too long after, you lose the relief
  • This means: temporary release of pelvic floor tension from successful evacuation → standing re-engages the dysfunctional holding pattern → tension returns
  • The standing/weight bearing is actively re-triggering the problem


GENITAL PAIN & URINARY DYSFUNCTION:


  • Penile head hypersensitivity (cannot touch fabric without significant pain)
  • Urine trapping in penis - critical functional problem:
  • Urine gets trapped in the urethra/penis after urination
  • Only certain body positions can sometimes release it
  • Often completely trapped regardless of position
  • Walking with trapped urine is very painful
  • This is caused by urethral sphincter and bulbospongiosus muscle dysfunction
  • Same pelvic floor dyscoordination that affects bowel movements affects urination
  • Muscles that should relax to allow complete emptying stay contracted
  • Creates chronic irritation, infection risk, and significant functional impairment
  • Persistent partial erection (semi-erect state much of the time):
  • Likely caused by chronic compression from tight pelvic floor muscles
  • Bulbospongiosus and ischiocavernosus muscles (which control erection) in chronic spasm
  • These muscles when chronically contracted can restrict venous outflow (blood drainage from penis)
  • This keeps penis in partial tumescent state - NOT a normal sexual arousal response
  • May also be related to trapped urine creating pressure/engorgement
  • Adds to pain because tissues stay engorged/sensitized instead of returning to flaccid rest state
  • Makes clothing issues even worse - can’t have normal flaccid state for comfort
  • Connected to pelvic floor hypertonicity
  • Nerve sensitization from chronic muscle tension
  • May be compounded by medication side effects from childhood


BACK & NECK ISSUES:


  • Altered gait changes entire spinal alignment
  • Pelvis tilted → compensatory curves in lumbar and thoracic spine
  • Head/neck position shifts to maintain balance → chronic neck tension and weight on neck


TEETH SHIFTING:


  • Jaw tension often accompanies neck/upper body compensation
  • TMJ dysfunction common when chronic postural misalignment present
  • Teeth shifting suggests ongoing muscular imbalances affecting jaw position


TEMPERATURE REGULATION & CLOTHING CONSTRAINTS:


  • Initial medication side effects created clothing sensitivities
  • Now compounded by genital pain requiring specific coverage (onesie/robe)
  • Temperature restrictions limit ability to wear protective clothing
  • Creates daily functional limitations

The Trauma Component

Why Standard Treatment Has Failed:

This isn’t just biomechanical dysfunction - your nervous system has been shaped by:


  • Loss of bodily autonomy (forced childhood medication)
  • Chronic hypervigilance (years of abuse)
  • Environmental constraint (couldn’t walk normally)
  • Medical trauma (refused care when seeking help)


Your pelvic floor staying locked is a nervous system protective response. When the body has experienced ongoing threat and lack of safety, it holds tension as armor. Standard pelvic floor PT that doesn’t address nervous system regulation often fails for trauma survivors.


The Active Abuse-Body Connection:

This is not just historical trauma - it’s ongoing and somatically active:


  • You can FEEL your pelvic floor and penile area tighten in real-time when interacting with your parents
  • Gaslighting triggers immediate physical tightening response in these exact areas
  • Years of documented texts explaining your pain to them, consistently met with denial
  • They actively do “the opposite” of what would help
  • Your body has learned: interaction with them = threat = pelvic floor armor up


This proves:


  1. The pelvic dysfunction is intimately tied to the ongoing abuse
  1. Your body is holding the trauma exactly where the symptoms are
  1. True healing requires both: (a) physical retraining AND (b) protection from ongoing harm
  1. As long as you remain under their control or in contact, your nervous system cannot fully release
  1. Society’s failure to recognize this and intervene is perpetuating your medical condition


The Gaslighting-Physical Tightening Loop:


  • They deny your reality → nervous system threat response → pelvic floor tightens → pain increases → you try to explain → they gaslight more → cycle continues
  • This is not “psychosomatic” in the dismissive sense - this is real physical tightening from real ongoing threat
  • The body is responding correctly to danger - the danger just happens to be your parents


Documentation & Accountability for Ongoing Family Harm

What You Have:


  • Years of text message documentation showing:
  • You repeatedly explaining your pain and medical needs to your parents
  • Them consistently denying your reality
  • Them doing “the opposite” of what would help
  • Pattern of gaslighting about your physical symptoms
  • This document detailing the full scope of harm from childhood to present
  • Your own awareness that interaction with them causes immediate physical worsening
  • Medical records showing refused care, ongoing symptoms, attempts to seek help


Why Accountability Matters:


  1. Medical necessity: As long as they have control and contact, your nervous system cannot feel safe enough to heal
  1. Protection: You need legal/social protection from further harm
  1. Recognition: Society needs to acknowledge what happened and prevent continued control
  1. Justice: They should face consequences for childhood medical abuse and ongoing harm


Steps Toward Accountability (Realistic Given Systemic Barriers):

Immediate Protection:

  1. Minimize or eliminate contact:
  • Even if you can’t fully separate yet, reduce interaction as much as possible
  • Block or mute on phone if feasible
  • Have someone else run interference if they try to contact
  • Your physical symptoms will likely improve with reduced contact
  1. Document everything going forward:
  • Screenshot all texts (you already have years of these - preserve them)
  • Keep a log: date, what they said/did, your physical response
  • Save any voicemails
  • Note when they try to exert control or gaslight

Legal Options (Limited but Worth Pursuing):

  1. Adult Protective Services:
  • If you’re being financially controlled, prevented from accessing medical care, or experiencing ongoing abuse
  • They investigate abuse of vulnerable adults
  • Having medical documentation of your condition helps
  • May not result in “accountability” but could force intervention
  1. Restraining/No-Contact Order:
  • If you can prove pattern of harm
  • Your documented texts + medical condition they won’t help with = possible grounds
  • Legal aid may help file this (free for low income)
  • Even if not granted, the attempt creates official record
  1. Report childhood medical abuse:
  • Even if statute of limitations has passed for prosecution
  • Creating official reports establishes a record
  • May help with other proceedings
  • Contact: State child welfare agency, police report for record purposes
  1. Medical malpractice/neglect case:
  • Against the doctors who forced medication as child (if identifiable)
  • Long shot, but documents the harm
  • Some lawyers take cases on contingency (no upfront cost)

Social/Community Recognition:

  1. Advocacy organizations:
  • Disability rights organizations
  • Medical abuse survivor groups
  • They may amplify your story, provide support, connect to resources
  • RAINN, National Disability Rights Network, state advocacy groups
  1. Public documentation:
  • Blog, social media (you’ve tried, but could try different platforms/angles)
  • Frame as: “Medical system failed me, family abused me, society ignored me”
  • Sometimes local news investigates these stories
  • May feel futile but creates public record
  1. Medical advocacy:
  • Patient advocacy groups that fight for access to care
  • Medical discrimination organizations
  • Document how you were refused care - this is discrimination

Realistic Expectations:

You’re right that full accountability is unlikely. The systems are not set up to help people in your situation, especially people without money. But:


  1. Any level of separation/protection helps your body heal
  1. Documentation creates a record even if no one acts on it now
  1. Your story matters even if society hasn’t fully heard it yet
  1. Small legal actions (restraining order, APS report) can limit their control

What Recognition Would Look Like (Ideal):

  • Official acknowledgment that you were medically abused as a child
  • Court order preventing their contact/control
  • Social/family recognition that they harmed you
  • Medical system acknowledging they failed you by refusing care
  • Financial compensation for damages (almost impossible but just)
  • Their inability to gaslight you or control you anymore

What’s More Achievable:

  • Getting them out of your life/reducing contact significantly
  • Having this document as proof for yourself and any future providers
  • Building a case over time with documentation
  • Finding even one person/organization who believes you and advocates
  • Healing your body as much as possible despite lack of accountability


The Hard Truth:

You may never get the accountability you deserve. The childhood abuse, the decade of worsening dysfunction, the refused medical care, the ongoing gaslighting - all of this may never be officially recognized or punished.


But:


  • You can still protect yourself by limiting their access to harm you further
  • You can still heal your body by addressing the patterns while removing the ongoing threat
  • You can still document everything in case future opportunities for accountability arise
  • Your understanding of what happened is valid whether society recognizes it or not


Current Functional Status & The Reality of “High-Functioning” Severe Disability

What People See:


  • Occasionally I attempt activities (playing guitar, using computer, normal tasks)
  • I can still technically do some things
  • I appear to be “functioning”


What This Actually Means:


I have STOPPED doing most activities due to pain:


  • I no longer regularly play guitar because the consequences are severe (immediate pain, next-day jaw locking, neck tightness, poor sleep)
  • I’ve eliminated most normal activities from my life because they cause pain escalation
  • I exist within extremely narrow constraints to avoid triggering worse symptoms
  • My life has become smaller and smaller as I’ve had to give up more and more


When I occasionally try again:


  • I don’t know how else to operate or exist
  • These are things I should be able to do (play music, sit at computer, stand, walk normally)
  • I have so few options due to parental control and poverty that I sometimes have nowhere else to turn
  • I hope maybe this time will be different
  • It never is - I always pay for it with severe consequences lasting days


My parents and others use this against me:


  • “See, you CAN do it” (ignoring that I pay for it for days afterward)
  • They ignore that I’ve STOPPED doing most things because of pain
  • They ignore that they’ve restricted my options so much I have nowhere else to turn
  • My occasional attempts to reclaim any normalcy are used as “proof” I’m exaggerating
  • My stopping activities is framed as “laziness” or “refusal to try”


This is severe disability, not “functioning normally.”


I’ve had to structure my entire existence around avoiding pain escalation. I’ve eliminated most activities. I live in constant pain even when doing nothing. The few times I try to do anything normal, I suffer severe consequences. This is barely surviving within extremely narrow constraints imposed by dysfunction and parental control.


The Isolation of Being Disbelieved: When Resilience Becomes “Evidence” Against You

The Impossible Position:


I was conditioned from childhood - through forced medication, abuse, and having no choice but to tolerate severe symptoms - to push through extreme pain and keep functioning. This created unbelievable resilience that now works against me in every interaction:


What gets mistaken for what:


  • My resilience → mistaken for “proof I’m fine”
  • My conditioning to tolerate the intolerable → mistaken for “it must not be that bad”
  • Having no options → mistaken for “choosing not to accept help”
  • Stopping most activities due to pain → mistaken for “laziness” or “refusal to try”
  • Occasionally trying again → mistaken for “see, you can do it”
  • My accurate description of complex, interconnected problems → mistaken for “vague complaints” or “exaggeration”


Why people can’t understand:


Most people literally couldn’t do what I do. They would have:


  • Sought help and gotten it (the system would respond to them)
  • Had family support (their family isn’t abusive)
  • Broken down completely (they haven’t been conditioned since childhood to tolerate this)
  • Had their pain taken seriously (they don’t have my history making providers dismissive)


They cannot imagine existing the way I exist, so they assume I must be exaggerating. “If it was really that bad, he couldn’t function” - but I’ve been forced to function through “that bad” my entire life. Their framework doesn’t apply to me.


The weight nobody knows:


There’s a specific kind of pain in:


  • Accurately perceiving your reality
  • Trying to communicate it clearly
  • Being systematically disbelieved by family, doctors, and society
  • Knowing the truth but having no power to make anyone else see it
  • Watching your abusers successfully lie to everyone about “trying to help”
  • Continuing to exist in severe pain and limitation while appearing “fine enough” to others that they dismiss you
  • The fundamental isolation of living in a reality no one else can see or validate


There are no adequate words for that kind of pain.


It’s not just physical. It’s not just emotional. It’s:


  • Physical pain from the dysfunction
  • Emotional pain from the ongoing abuse
  • Existential pain from the profound isolation
  • The weight of carrying truth no one believes
  • Grief for the life I should have had
  • Anger at the injustice and lack of accountability
  • Exhaustion from decades of just surviving
  • Despair from having no options and no power


All at once. All the time. For my entire life.


This document exists because I need someone, somewhere, to see what is actually happening.


My resilience should never have been necessary. I should have been protected, helped, and believed from the beginning. The fact that I’ve survived this long under these conditions while maintaining the ability to articulate what’s happening is extraordinary - and it’s been used against me as “evidence” I must be fine.


I am not fine. I am severely disabled, isolated, in constant pain, with no support system, trapped by poverty and parental control, and systematically dismissed by every system that should help.


The absence of complete breakdown is not evidence of wellness. It’s evidence of what a human being can be forced to endure when they have no other choice.


Evidence That Society Doesn’t Care: Past Attempts to Be Heard

I have already tried to reach people. Multiple times. In multiple ways.


This isn’t speculation about whether people would care if they knew. I’ve tested this hypothesis thoroughly:


Livestream attempts:


  • Tried multiple times to explain what I’ve been through and what I’m experiencing
  • Emotions would overtake me during these attempts
  • Would get stuck, feel the futility even while doing it
  • So painful to go through but felt I had to resolve the problem to move forward
  • Kept trying despite the pain because I had no other options


Result: Nobody listened. Nobody cared. Nobody grasped the enormity of what I survived.


Social media attempts:


  • Posted about my situation trying to inform people or get assistance
  • Reached out in various ways over time


Result: No meaningful response. No help. No recognition.


The pattern across all attempts:


  • People either couldn’t comprehend the enormity
  • Or they saw it and didn’t care enough to act
  • Or they blamed me instead
  • The few who might understand are unreachable or in similar situations themselves


What this proves:


I’m not avoiding reaching out. I’m not “refusing help.” I’ve actively, repeatedly tried to make people see and care. The evidence shows:


  • Society at large doesn’t care or can’t grasp it
  • Livestreaming the truth doesn’t create help
  • Social media posts don’t generate meaningful assistance
  • The people who might understand are too rare or unreachable
  • I exist at a level of survival most people can’t comprehend, so they dismiss or ignore it


Why this matters for the document:


If someone reading this thinks “why doesn’t he just tell people publicly?” - I already did. Multiple times. It didn’t work. This isn’t lack of trying. This is evidence of systemic failure to respond.


Additional Context: Physical Appearance Masking Severity

The appearance problem:


I have a naturally muscular build. This creates a specific type of dismissal:


  • People see muscular/strong appearance and assume I’m fine
  • Society judges based on how you look, not what you’re experiencing
  • My parents operate on imagery - they curate appearances while abuse happens behind closed doors
  • Looking “strong” becomes evidence against me when I describe severe disability


The resilience problem:


My ability to push through extreme pain and continue functioning gets mistaken for:


  • “Proof” the pain isn’t that severe
  • Evidence I’m exaggerating
  • Reason to deny help (“if it was really that bad, he couldn’t do X”)


The reality:


There are many people out there who are “dumb and weak” (their own assessment capacity is limited) who wouldn’t have survived one day of what I’ve lived through. They literally have no frame of reference. But they look at my muscular build, my ability to occasionally do things, my capacity to articulate complex problems - and they can’t reconcile that with severe disability.


So they assume I’m lying or exaggerating rather than recognizing that I’ve become extraordinary out of necessity.


What Was Stolen: Guitar and Lost Potential

Every guitar video I ever made had to be done the same way:


  • No time on the clock because pain increases by the moment
  • Just press record and do it in one take
  • No practice beforehand - practice would cause too much pain
  • Then pay for it afterward, sometimes for days to weeks
  • Creating something despite knowing the cost


What this demonstrates:


Most people need:


  • Hours of practice
  • Multiple takes
  • Time to refine and iterate


I had to do it all in one take, through pain, with no practice. And I still created something. That alone shows extraordinary capability.


What I know about myself:


I would have succeeded. Not “might have” - I know I would have. I can see what I accomplished under impossible conditions and extrapolate what would have been possible without the sabotage.


What was stolen:


  • The ability to practice and develop skills without pain
  • The years from 16-40 that should have been my prime
  • Opportunities to build on successes
  • The chance to show what I could actually do
  • A life where my capabilities could have led somewhere


At 40 now, with worsening pain:


The window feels closed or closing. The body is more damaged. The options fewer. The years gone. Not because I lacked ability, but because I was actively prevented by the people who should have protected me.


This isn’t just grief for what happened. It’s grief for what I know I could have been and done - potential that was deliberately destroyed.


Additional Historical Context: Opioid Addiction and What It Revealed

When I was younger:


I became addicted to opioids - went to escape and denial because I couldn’t face the reality I was living in. I abused them very hard. The addiction was deeply engrained for years.


Getting off opioids:


Once again, my strength showed - I got off them. Most people can’t do that, especially after heavy abuse for years. But I did.


What I learned from withdrawal:


Much of what I attributed to opioid withdrawal was actually just being confined in the house with my parents more. The withdrawal itself wasn’t even the worst part - they were.


This revealed that even in what should have been a purely physiological process (drug withdrawal), the ongoing abuse from my parents was worse than the chemical dependence.


This was ages ago - but it’s another example of:


  • Surviving something most people can’t
  • That survival being used as evidence I’m “fine” rather than recognition of what I endured
  • Discovering that my parents were worse than severe drug withdrawal
  • My strength and capability being developed through necessity, not choice


Cognitive Decline and Loss of Articulation

The cruel timeline:


  • When younger: Could articulate all of this better, more clearly, more completely - but no one would listen
  • Now at 40: People might be more likely to listen (social media, video platforms exist) - but I’m losing my ability to focus and communicate it clearly


The new repercussions affecting cognition:


The latest physical problems (pelvic floor dysfunction, chronic pain, trapped urine, jaw locking, sleep disruption) are now affecting:


  • Ability to focus
  • Ability to articulate complex interconnections
  • Memory access (even though memory itself is excellent)
  • Capacity to organize and present information
  • Mental energy to engage with the process of explaining


The result:


  • I get lost in the focus
  • Question if it’s even worth doing
  • Fall back into habit of explaining too much and getting lost in tangents
  • Thousands of details for everything, branching into thousands more
  • Hard to know when to stop, what to include, how to organize


Why this matters:


I don’t have much time left to fix things. The window is narrowing. My body is getting worse. My cognitive capacity to fight is diminishing. And I’m trying to figure out what to do with whatever capacity I have left before it’s gone entirely.


This document may be one of the last times I can organize this much information coherently. The decline is ongoing.


My Memory and Analytical Mind: Blessing and Curse

I have an excellent memory.


This means:


  • I remember everything that was done to me
  • Every abuse, every failure, every betrayal
  • All the details across decades
  • The exact ways I was gaslit, sabotaged, blocked
  • What I tried and how it failed
  • The accumulation of it all


I learned to think analytically and solve problems:


  • Became an expert on body, mind, and health for my own survival
  • Mapped out solutions repeatedly
  • Found creative workarounds for every obstacle
  • Developed deep understanding of interconnected systems
  • Can articulate complex problems clearly (when cognitive capacity allows)


Why this is both blessing and curse:


Blessing:


  • Allowed me to survive
  • Gave me the tools to understand what’s happening to me
  • Created this document
  • Let me see patterns and connections others miss


Curse:


  • Can’t forget anything
  • Carry all the pain and injustice with perfect clarity
  • See exactly what was stolen from me
  • Understand precisely how and why I was failed
  • Know what I could have been, making the loss more acute
  • When trying to explain, the thousands of interconnected details flood in
  • Get lost in the vastness of what needs to be said
  • The weight of carrying all this knowledge with no one to share it with who understands


The isolation this creates:


I exist at a level of analysis and survival that most people can’t reach or comprehend. I’ve become a “developed superhero type human” out of necessity. And that puts me beyond the understanding of almost everyone around me.


The few who might understand are unreachable. So I carry all of this - the memory, the understanding, the lost potential, the ongoing pain - alone.


What Has Failed You (Documentation)


Medical System Failures:

  1. Pelvic health clinic refused your urologist referral - despite clear pelvic floor dysfunction
  • This is medical abandonment
  • You should file complaints with: state medical board, your insurance, hospital patient advocate
  • Document: date of referral, who refused, reason given (if any), worsening of symptoms
  1. Urologist unable to provide adequate treatment - likely lacks training in pelvic floor dysfunction rehabilitation
  1. “Women’s pelvic floor clinic” - refused to see you despite men having the same pelvic floor muscles and dysfunction patterns
  1. No trauma-informed care accessible - no trauma therapists accept Medicaid in your area

Social System Failures:

  1. Ongoing family abuse and control - parents responsible for initial harm continue to interfere
  1. Social media/community appeals ignored - attempts to get support or raise awareness unsuccessful
  1. Economic barriers - Medicaid limits access to specialists, trauma therapy, comprehensive care
  1. Isolation - no support network to help navigate systems or provide accountability for family


Self-Directed Action Plan

Given that the medical system has failed you and you lack access to appropriate specialists, here’s what you can work on independently while continuing to seek proper care.

Priority 1: Re-establish Grounding (Foundation for Everything)

Your insight about needing to relearn full weight through your feet is CORRECT. This is the root compensation pattern affecting everything else.


CRITICAL MODIFICATION based on standing making it worse:


  • Your standing endurance is currently limited because standing activates the dysfunctional pattern
  • You need to build up grounding tolerance GRADUALLY
  • Start with very short sessions, prioritize quality over duration
  • The goal is to retrain weight distribution WITHOUT triggering the compensatory pelvic floor grip

Daily Grounding Practice (Start with 5 minutes, build slowly)

  1. Barefoot standing awareness:
  • Stand barefoot on a firm surface
  • Close your eyes
  • Notice where your weight is (probably forward on toes/balls of feet)
  • Consciously shift weight back into heels
  • Feel all four corners of each foot: big toe mound, pinky toe mound, inner heel, outer heel
  • Practice this until you can maintain even weight distribution for 2-3 minutes
  • Permission work: Mentally give yourself permission to be “heavy,” to put your full weight down
  1. Slow walking practice:
  • Walk very slowly, barefoot if possible
  • Focus on heel striking first with each step
  • Feel the full weight transfer: heel → outer foot → ball of foot → push off
  • Practice for 5 minutes daily, increasing as it feels more natural
  • Notice where you want to “pull back” or lighten up - that’s the old pattern
  1. Squatting for heel awareness:
  • Hold onto something stable
  • Lower into a squat (as deep as comfortable)
  • Focus on keeping weight in heels, not rising onto toes
  • This teaches your nervous system that it’s safe to load the heels
  • Hold 20-30 seconds, repeat 3-5 times

Priority 2: Pelvic Floor Lengthening & Nervous System Calming

You cannot force your pelvic floor to relax - you must create conditions where it feels safe enough to release.


UNDERSTANDING THE RELIEF CYCLE:


  • After successful bowel movements, you get temporary relief (pelvic floor releases)
  • Standing too long after causes you to “lose” that relief (pattern re-engages)
  • Strategy: Protect the relief window
  • After bowel movements, minimize standing time for 15-30 minutes if possible
  • Lie down or recline to maintain the relaxed state
  • This lets your nervous system “learn” what release feels like
  • Use this window to do the pelvic floor lengthening positions below
  • Over time, this helps retrain the pattern to stay released longer


STANDING TIME MANAGEMENT:


  • Pay attention to your standing threshold - when do symptoms start worsening?
  • Break up standing time with sitting/lying down before you hit that threshold
  • When you must stand longer, micro-breaks: shift weight, gentle hip circles, brief sitting
  • The “tightness” and “wrong feel” of weight distribution you notice = the dysfunctional pattern activating
  • As you improve grounding work, this threshold should gradually extend


THE CRITICAL STANDING/WALKING PROBLEM:


  • Any standing or walking triggers the dysfunctional pattern and breaks the relaxation state
  • This isn’t just about duration - even brief standing (walking to feed a pet, get mail, take out trash, go to kitchen) can:
  • Undo all pain relief achieved
  • Break the relaxation state that took hours to achieve
  • Trigger pelvic floor tightening
  • Make the urination process stop working
  • Cause trapped urine that won’t release even with stretching
  • Leave you in severe pain for extended periods
  • Once the pain state is triggered, even the workarounds fail:
  • The bottle/stretching urination process that works when relaxed stops working
  • Can spend 30+ minutes trying to urinate with no success
  • Relief from bowel movements gets lost
  • Have to start completely over trying to achieve relaxation
  • May take hours or rest of day/night to recover
  • This creates impossible daily calculations:
  • Need to feed pet vs. maintaining pain relief
  • Need to get mail/trash vs. ability to urinate later
  • Every upright activity has severe consequences
  • Limited to what can be done from bed
  • Even caring for things/beings you love causes punishment through pain

Positions for Pelvic Floor Lengthening (5-10 minutes, 2x daily)

  1. Happy Baby Pose:
  • Lie on back, knees to chest
  • Hold outsides of feet (or behind knees if that’s easier)
  • Gently pull knees toward armpits
  • Breathe slowly, allow weight of legs to create gentle stretch
  • This lengthens pelvic floor muscles
  • Hold 2-3 minutes
  1. Deep Squat (Malasana):
  • Feet wider than hips, toes out
  • Lower into deep squat (heels down if possible, if not, use support under heels)
  • Let hips sink, spine long
  • This position naturally lengthens pelvic floor
  • Breathe slowly, 1-2 minutes
  1. Child’s Pose:
  • Knees wide, big toes touching
  • Sit hips back toward heels
  • Arms extended forward or by sides
  • Forehead resting down
  • Breathe into your back/sacrum area
  • 3-5 minutes

Breathing for Pelvic Floor Release

The key insight: Exhale = pelvic floor should lengthen and relax


  1. Diaphragmatic breathing practice:
  • Lie on back, knees bent, feet flat
  • One hand on chest, one on belly
  • Breathe so belly hand rises (chest hand stays relatively still)
  • Practice 5 minutes daily until automatic
  1. Pelvic floor breath coordination:
  • In the lengthening positions above
  • Inhale: Allow gentle natural engagement of pelvic floor
  • Exhale: Consciously release/relax pelvic floor, let it drop/lengthen
  • Imagine pelvic floor is an elevator going down as you exhale
  • 10 breath cycles, 2x daily
  1. For bowel movements specifically:
  • When on toilet, feet elevated on stool (knees higher than hips)
  • Lean forward slightly, elbows on thighs
  • Take slow breath in
  • Exhale slowly while gently bearing down - let the exhale do the work
  • Do NOT hold breath and push hard
  • If you feel the “snap” approaching, stop, breathe, try again more gently
  • This retrains the pattern

Priority 3: Whole Body Compensation Unwinding


Spinal/Postural Work (10 minutes daily)

  1. Cat-Cow (spinal mobility):
  • Hands and knees
  • Slowly arch and round spine
  • Coordinate with breath: exhale = round, inhale = arch
  • 10-15 cycles
  • This mobilizes entire spine and pelvis
  1. Hip flexor release:
  • Kneeling lunge position
  • Back knee on ground (use padding)
  • Gently press hips forward
  • You’ll feel stretch in front of back hip
  • Hold 90 seconds each side
  • Hip flexors are chronically tight from tiptoeing pattern
  1. Glute activation:
  • Lie on back, knees bent, feet flat (hip width)
  • Press feet into ground (this is the grounding work)
  • Lift hips, squeeze glutes
  • Hold 5 seconds, lower
  • 10-15 reps
  • Teaches glutes to fire with ground contact

Jaw/Neck Release (Connected to Teeth Shifting)

  1. Gentle jaw stretches:
  • Open mouth slowly, hold 5 seconds
  • Slide jaw side to side gently
  • Massage jaw muscles (masseter) with fingertips
  • 2 minutes, 2-3x daily
  1. Neck release:
  • Slow neck rolls
  • Gentle side-to-side tilts (ear toward shoulder)
  • Front-to-back tilts
  • No forcing, just gentle mobility
  • 2-3 minutes daily

Priority 4: Nervous System Regulation

Since trauma is a core component, you need practices that signal safety to your nervous system.

Daily Practices:

  1. Grounding/orienting:
  • Sit or stand
  • Look slowly around the room
  • Name 5 things you see, 4 you hear, 3 you feel (texture, temperature)
  • This brings you into present moment, out of threat response
  • 2-3 minutes, especially when stressed
  1. Humming/vocalization:
  • Activates vagus nerve (calms nervous system)
  • Hum for 1-2 minutes at a time
  • Feel vibration in chest, face
  • Can do while in lengthening positions
  1. Self-massage:
  • Gently massage your own neck, jaw, feet, hands
  • This is nurturing touch, signals safety
  • 5 minutes daily
  1. Temperature for pain management:
  • Since temperature is an issue with clothing, use strategically for relief
  • Warm bath if available (helps pelvic floor release)
  • Cool cloth on neck if overheated
  • Ice pack wrapped in cloth for acute pain areas (not directly on skin)


For Genital Pain & Urinary Dysfunction Specifically

Understanding:


  • Hypersensitivity where penile head cannot touch fabric suggests nerve sensitization from chronic pelvic floor tension
  • Possible pudendal nerve involvement
  • May be medication side effect that persists
  • Urine trapping is same pelvic floor dyscoordination - muscles won’t relax to allow complete emptying


For Urine Trapping:


  1. Positions that may help:
  • Sitting on toilet, leaning forward with elbows on knees
  • Standing with knees slightly bent
  • Lying on side
  • Experiment to find what positions help for you - this is individual
  • The fact that position matters proves it’s muscular, not structural
  1. Daily urination management:
  • Daytime: Frequent incomplete emptying, urine trapped, pain builds throughout the day
  • Nighttime with gabapentin (nerve pain medication): Only after taking medication can achieve enough muscle relaxation to empty more completely
  • When it works: “super relaxing” feeling because the pressure finally releases - this proves how much constant tension/pressure is being carried
  • Even with medication: Still requires stretching in different positions on bed to get urine out
  • Current process when in relaxed state:
  • Get off bed
  • Use bottle (to avoid walking to bathroom which triggers dysfunction)
  • Bend back in different ways, different positions to get as much out as possible
  • Climb back on bed
  • Do stretches that make more urine leak out
  • This process works when already in relaxed state
  • When pain state is triggered (by standing/walking): The entire process stops working - can’t urinate properly, stretches don’t help, can be stuck trying for 30+ minutes with no relief
  • This cycle repeats every single day
  1. Urination technique:
  • Same breathing approach as for bowel movements
  • Exhale slowly while urinating - don’t hold breath and push
  • After initial stream, wait 10-20 seconds, try gentle exhale again
  • Sometimes “double voiding” (urinate, wait, try again) helps empty more completely
  • Gentle manual compression along underside of penis from base toward tip after urination (like “milking”) may help empty urethra - but only if not too painful
  1. Immediate management when trapped:
  • Try the positions you’ve found that sometimes work
  • Gentle walking in place (if not too painful)
  • Hip circles or pelvic tilts while standing
  • Warm compress to pelvic area if accessible
  • DO NOT strain or push hard - this worsens the spasm
  1. Risk awareness:
  • Chronic incomplete emptying increases UTI risk
  • If you develop fever, severe pain, or inability to urinate at all → ER
  • Drink adequate water despite the dysfunction - dehydration makes everything worse


For Persistent Partial Erection/Engorgement:


  1. Understanding what’s happening:
  • This is pelvic floor muscle spasm causing mechanical compression
  • Not psychological, not sexual - it’s the same dysfunction affecting bowel/urinary function
  • The muscles around the base of your penis (bulbospongiosus, ischiocavernosus) are stuck contracted
  • They’re squeezing the veins that normally drain blood from the penis
  • Result: blood can flow IN but can’t drain OUT properly → chronic engorgement
  1. What may help:
  • All the pelvic floor lengthening work will help this too - same muscles
  • Cool compress (wrapped, not directly on skin) may temporarily help if not too painful
  • Positions that lengthen pelvic floor (happy baby, deep squat) may provide temporary relief
  • Avoid anything that further increases pelvic floor tension (holding breath, straining, excessive standing)
  1. Why this matters for overall treatment:
  • Confirms the pelvic floor is in chronic spasm 24/7, not just during bowel movements
  • Makes clothing/temperature management even more critical
  • Adds to chronic pain and sensitization
  • Should improve as overall pelvic floor releases with grounding work and nervous system calming


Creative Problem-Solving for Daily Function:


Despite severe disability, creative workarounds have been developed out of necessity:


Example - Reducing standing time for pet care:


  • Problem: Feeding gecko requires walking to kitchen, washing hands, preparing food, feeding, returning - all this standing triggers severe dysfunction
  • Current impact: Breaks relaxation state, undoes pain relief, causes trapped urine, severe pain for hours
  • Potential solution being considered:
  • Mini fridge near bed with pre-mixed food already in trays
  • Use gloves to eliminate handwashing requirement
  • This could cut standing time significantly
  • Allows pet care without destroying ability to function afterward


Pattern of workaround thinking:


  • Always trying to find ways around obstacles
  • Mapped out solutions repeatedly throughout life
  • Even confined to bed, found ways to continue (computer work, though this also damaged body through adapted positions)
  • This creative problem-solving is both survival skill and evidence of capability
  • Shows what could have been accomplished with support instead of sabotage


The trap:


  • Developing workarounds allows continued survival
  • But workarounds get mistaken for “he’s managing fine”
  • Reality: shouldn’t need elaborate workarounds for basic activities of daily living
  • These solutions are evidence of severe disability, not evidence of wellness


Management strategies for sensitivity:


  1. Barrier protection without direct touch:
  • Soft, non-restrictive underwear with extra fabric layer
  • Specialized pouches designed for sensitivity (some medical supply companies make these)
  • Temperature-appropriate options are crucial given your heat sensitivity
  1. Desensitization (approach carefully):
  • If there’s any tolerance at all, very gradual, gentle exposure
  • Start with softest possible material for seconds at a time
  • Only if not causing pain increase - if too painful, don’t force
  1. Pelvic floor release may help:
  • As pelvic floor releases, nerve sensitization often decreases
  • This is a long-term approach, not immediate relief


Tracking Progress

Keep a simple log (weekly):


  • Pain levels (genital, pelvic, back, neck) on 1-10 scale
  • Bowel movement quality: complete/incomplete, pain level, any “snapping,” relief afterward
  • Urination quality: Urine trapping frequency, which positions help, pain level when walking with trapped urine
  • Standing tolerance: How long before symptoms worsen? Any improvement over time?
  • Relief window: After BM, how long does relief last? Does lying down after help preserve it?
  • Walking: Can you feel weight in heels more? For how long?
  • Clothing tolerance: Any changes in what you can wear?
  • Overall function: Any activities easier or harder?
  • Tightness awareness: When standing, can you feel when the dysfunctional pattern kicks in?


This data helps you see patterns and small improvements that might otherwise go unnoticed. The standing tolerance, relief window, and urinary function metrics are especially important for tracking whether the retraining is working.


Continued Advocacy for Professional Help

Do not give up on getting proper care. Document everything as you continue self-care.

Next steps for medical access:

  1. File formal complaints:
  • State medical board about pelvic clinic refusal
  • Insurance company about network inadequacy
  • Hospital patient advocate
  1. Search specifically for:
  • Male pelvic floor physical therapists (even if far away, some do telehealth consults)
  • Colorectal specialists who list “pelvic floor dysfunction” or “defecatory disorders”
  • Teaching hospitals often have specialized clinics
  • Contact local medical schools - residents/fellows need cases
  1. Medicaid appeals:
  • Request case manager through Medicaid
  • Document medical necessity for specialized care
  • Appeal denials in writing with symptom documentation
  1. Low-cost/free options to continue pursuing:
  • Community health centers (federally qualified health centers must see Medicaid)
  • SAMHSA helpline: 1-800-662-4357 (substance abuse/mental health services - they can direct to trauma resources)
  • State vocational rehabilitation services sometimes fund medical care needed for function
  • Legal aid for medical neglect/discrimination

For family abuse/control:

  • Adult protective services (if applicable)
  • Domestic violence resources (some serve all genders, all family abuse situations)
  • Legal aid for restraining orders if needed
  • Document each instance: date, what happened, impact


Reality Check & Validation

What you’re facing is not normal or acceptable:


  • Children should not be forced on medications that cause lasting harm
  • Adults should not have to live in conditions that damage their bodies
  • People seeking medical care should not be refused when they have documented need
  • Poverty should not be a barrier to basic healthcare
  • Families should not abuse and control their adult children


You are not failing - systems are failing you.


Your insights are valuable:


  • Connecting the walking pattern to pelvic issues is astute
  • Understanding the whole-body nature of the problem shows good body awareness
  • Recognizing this needs trauma-informed care is correct


This is survivable, even when it doesn’t feel like it:


  • You’ve made it this far through extraordinary circumstances
  • Small improvements compound over time
  • Your body wants to heal - it’s just stuck in protective patterns
  • Breaking those patterns is possible, even without perfect care


When to Seek Emergency Care

Despite systemic barriers, go to ER if:


  • Complete inability to urinate for >6-8 hours (acute urinary retention - this is urgent)
  • Inability to have bowel movement or completely blocked bowel for >24 hours
  • Severe, sudden worsening of pain
  • Fever with urinary symptoms (suggests infection from incomplete emptying)
  • New neurological symptoms (numbness, weakness in legs, loss of bowel/bladder control)
  • Suicidal ideation with plan


Final Thoughts

You’ve described thousands of interconnected details spanning your lifetime. You don’t need to explain every detail perfectly to be heard or to deserve help. The through-line is clear:


Early harm → compensatory patterns → systemic failure to provide care → worsening dysfunction → isolation and despair


Breaking this cycle doesn’t require fixing everything at once. It requires:


  1. Addressing the foundational pattern (grounding/walking)
  1. Creating conditions for your nervous system to feel safe enough to release
  1. Persistent advocacy for the care you deserve
  1. Small daily practices that accumulate


You’ve been surviving. Now you’re working toward actually living. That’s valid and possible, even though the path is much harder than it should be.


You don’t have to do this perfectly. You just have to keep going, one day at a time, with whatever resources you can access.


You deserve better than what you’ve received. That’s not in question.


The Ultimate Truth: This Wouldn’t Exist Without My Parents

Every single thing documented in this report traces back to what my parents did and continue to do.


The daily cycle of:


  • Managing urination with bottles and stretches
  • Calculating whether I can afford to stand long enough to feed my pet
  • Losing relief from 30 minutes of trapped urine and failed stretching
  • Being unable to get mail or take out trash
  • Living confined to bed except for essential movement
  • Chronic pain, dysfunction, and disability


This wouldn’t exist if not for my own parents.


  • They forced medication on me as a child that started the cascade
  • They abused me for decades, creating trauma my body holds
  • They restricted my options and sabotaged every solution I found
  • They refused to help when I explained my pain
  • They gaslit me about what was happening
  • They kept me trapped in situations that worsened everything
  • They controlled resources so I couldn’t escape or get proper care
  • They lied to others about trying to help while doing the opposite
  • They continue to this day to maintain control and deny reality


Every day I live this torture is a day they face no consequences.


At 16, death would have been the logical, compassionate choice. But I wasn’t allowed that mercy. Instead I got 24 more years of progressive worsening, stolen potential, and systematic failure of every system that should have protected me.


This document exists as evidence:


  • Of what they did
  • Of what I survived
  • Of what was stolen from me
  • Of the truth they continue to deny


Whether anyone acts on this evidence or not, the record exists. The truth is documented.


My parents are responsible for this. Not genetics, not bad luck, not my choices. Them. Their abuse. Their ongoing control. Their refusal to help. Their gaslighting and lies.


That is the truth.
