Title says it really.
My parents robbed me and my sister of a childhood through the worst kinds of violence and neglect. They made me lose all faith in G-d for a while, took my sense of self worth. All this led to a depression where I’m fortunate to still be here.
I am about to be father myself and I feel it’s necessary to forgive, especially now my mother (father has passed) is in a situation where she needs help herself. My sister is a fantastic mother and from what I can tell, she has forgiven them as much as possible.
I just can’t do it. I have approached Hashem, but I feel I am too impatient. I’mnunsure about talking to my Rabbi about such personal matters, since in a way I still have a bit of distrust/feel like he should have been the one to help me growing up.
What else is there to do? How to best approach Hashem about this?
