Hello @Evie1 . It sounds like you're overwhelmed by your feelings of 'what if'... but it also sounds like you have good insight because you understand how your feelings might influence your behaviours? But that's only a might - nothing is set in stone...

I can relate @Evie1 from kid and mother point of view.
Hugs and Tears and search for answers to your trauma. There is more help around than there used to be, so maybe you will be able to put it behind you one day.
