I am the child of two heroin addicts. I have depression, anxiety and C-PTSD. I was kicked out of three schools. I had my first daughter at 18. I am the survivor of domestic abuse. I am a mother, daughter, sister and friend. I am a Teacher.
A year ago the nightmare I had been living in ended. I was being mentally and physically abused by the man I loved and he left. This relationship was devastating; it almost killed me. Almost. He did not though, and I thank the universe every day for that. But, him leaving was not enough to save my life. I HAD to do some work. I am so proud of what I have learnt over the past year and I have so many people to thank too for teaching and guiding me. So, to thank those people I am going to share it. I am going to write about it until the world knows how amazing life after trauma can be.
I am going to talk about the things that have changed EVERYTHING for me this past year.
