Although I'm male I had a similar experience with my mother. Before I was placed in a foster home at the age of 5, she slept with me, pinched me about the private parts until I cried, while I cried, and after I cried. I had nowhere to go.
The earliest sentence I remember is, "these are love pinches".
I'm amazed I'm not into S&M or something. After years of being fostered and farmed out, the state finally let my neurotic dad have custody of me and my younger sister. My mother drank herself to death the day Kennedy was killed.
In my twenties I started engaging in some serious self-injury (cutting). Eventually I was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder and even PTSD. I'm amazed I'm still alive. I struggle with the usual borderline excesses but I'm doing better.
