Abuse and Forgiveness

Dear Doctor(s)/ Friends,

Thank you so much for your assistance to me.

I have some problems that have been disturbing to me almost everyday for a very long time now.

I would like to know how to deal with people who hurt me.
People have hurt me and neglected me alot in the past especially extended family members.
It is very hard to forget.

How do you forgive people who have hurt you ?

It is very hard.
Do I get back at them in some way verbally or avoid them?

Those who have accused you falsely.
Those who have insulted you time and time again.
Those who have neglected you and your family members in times of severe illness and trouble.
Those who ill speak you.
Those who show their hatred towards you.
Those people especially siblings who cause trouble for you call you names and cause endless trouble for you.
How do you get over alll these bad memories.
Do you continue to have a close relationship with these people?
Do you avoid those who constantly hurt you ? Who hurt your family members and put you down and treat you with insult and scorn, Those who only see their point of view, accuse you falsely, those who neglect you, those who caused trouble for you ?

How to get over these people and forget the bad memories?

What to do with these people? continue to be nice to them though they may cause you more harm in the future?
Avoid them?

How to forgive them?

THANK YOU!!!
