Why would i break out in laughter when getting abused?!


Question: Why would i break out in laughter when getting abused!?
long story short, i used to be abused until just recently!. first by cusin, then baby sitter, and most recently brother!.

he would hit me with steel toe boots hangers pipes bats whatever he could find, and of course it would hurt, but then i would just break out laughing telling him to hit me and get this adrenaline rush and push him and get in his face and it would really scare him that i was laughing and being agressive at the same time!.

is that just instinct to stop from getting hurt!? is it cuz of my disorder!? what caused that!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Kinda had a same situation-

when my dad abused me- (4-5 years ago, he died in '05) I would break out into laughter- usually with a bloody nose and in one case a broken rib!.

Just enlighten it, think of it this way:

If you are attacked, and beaten, I'm almost 100% positive that the person beating you would run away as fast as possible when you start laughing!. If I were you, i'd use it to my advantage!.

Perhaps it's an emotional defense mechanism - laughing to distract your body from the pain you're in and help you to protect yourself!. I hope you speak up to someone about the abuse and get away from these people!. Take care of yourself!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I think it is just hysteria and you nerves!. I don't think it is anything else!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

We all react differently to stressful situations!. Sometimes when the situation is really bad our minds go into a sort of defensive mode in order to protect itself!. Sometime part of the defense involves having the opposite emotional reaction then you would normally expect!. How each person responses to a stressful situation is different but they are all normal in their own way!.


However this reaction you are having means that you are under serious mental stress!. It would be a very good idea to try to talk to a professional or someone that you can trust!. Being abused by family is one of the most tromitizing things that can happen to a person!. Even if you think you are fine, I highly advise seeking help!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
