 I can understand your surprise and how it was in conflict with what you expected and submitted to given your adult status. As a psychology scholar, you have a better understanding than most of how the human mind functions under stress and tradition. So it must have been virtually shocking to you that you were disciplined as harshly as you were without physical resistance on your part even though you could have done so if the thought had seriously crossed your mind. Evidently it did not and so you were reduced to the status of a naughty girl which of course was at substantial loggerhead with the image of yourself that you had perpetuated over the years.

So my question for you is why did you let it all happen. What psychological need did you have/ stilll have that dictated and fed the momentum that led to your ignoble punishment that you must have known would be known by other family members for the duration of your stay? Are you in essence at heart a little girl who craves punishment when she misbehaves based on past practices that conditioned your psyche to accept as warranted, perhaps not unlike the Stockholm syndrome.
