Man I feel so bad for him, someone who went through not physically but emotionally abusive family I can relate to it to some extent. Lot of times even though victims desperately try not become like their abusers specially if the abuser is their own parents it becomes harder and harder if faced with life's harsh up and downs where you go back to habits you have came to know and that is abusive behaviour learnt from your own abusers. It becomes habit, only way victim know how to react because that's the way they saw their parents, their abusers use. It's vicious cycle which is hard to break and I hope Jay can understand that he is stuck there and break that cycle and understand how to communicate his feelings properly. (My head is mess from cold so it's hard to put words together)
