Fashion designer Özkan Karakuşoğlu: "I was a man who wet the bed until I was 22, and I experienced violence from my mother."

In the program "Haber Bahane," fashion designer Özkan Karakuşoğlu, who was a guest of Gökay Kalaycıoğlu, explained the traumas created in him by the strict pressures of his mother during his childhood years. Karakuşoğlu, who shared that he wet the bed until the age of 22, candidly recounted the fears he experienced and the difficulties in his life.

"I WAS ABUSED BY MY MOTHER, I THOUGHT ABOUT SUICIDE MULTIPLE TIMES"

Describing what kind of childhood he had, Karakuşoğlu said, "I was a very introverted, inexpressive, naive child. I had a very dominant mother, very strict. My father was just as soft. My mother’s excessive oppression and the naivety and silence at home made everything my mother said feel like an order to me. If she said not to go outside, I wouldn’t go; if she said to sit, I would sit; if she said to get up, I would get up. The first woman I fell in love with in life is my mother; no one could prevent my love for her, which made me tremble. I could be subjected to very severe violence from my mother, but I could never be angry with her. I thought about suicide multiple times." he said.

"I WAS A MAN WHO WET THE BED UNTIL THE AGE OF 22"

Making a striking confession, Karakuşoğlu stated, "I was a man who wet the bed until the age of 22. I cannot describe the pressures I faced during that time due to wetting the bed. I was so pressured just because I wet the bed. I was very afraid of being humiliated. In fact, I had even explained this to my first fiancée, saying, 'If you encounter something like this, don’t bring it up to my face.' When I got married, I experienced that situation once, and my wife never brought it up to my face." he expressed.
