    • About Me

      I love animals, books, movies, my Mom's new car (lol). I don't give out my real name on the internet, or where I live (I think knowing I'm from NY is enough). My screen name "Tierna" is Spanish, it means "tender-hearted". That pretty much describes me to a tee. I'm a devout animal lover, they are my world, my rock, I don't know what I would do without them.

    • Open Sexual Abuse

      I was molested by an uncle when I was 10yrs old.It only happened once,and I was frightened so I didn't tell my parents.Unfortunately he then went on to molest my younger sister and cousin. Finally our parents were told,but my grandparents talked them out of doing anything about it,because he"wouldn't have a life if he got arrested".My Mom really regrets it,because my grandpa(his dad)molested my then 13yr old sister,she's 16 now, and the family wanted to ignore it but Mom had him arrested for it.

      Treatments

      Me,Mom, and my 16yr old sister have completely cut ourselves off from my Dad and his side of the family. It has really helped, they aren't good people.
      Music Working / Worked
      When I get sad I like to listen to my favorite songs, and that always cheers me up.
      Talking Working / Worked
      I still hurt very much, both for me and my sisters. And my Mom, she feels terribly guilty because she let herself be talked into something she didn't agree with. But trust me talking/journaling do help alot.

      Having my animals to take care of has really helped.

      3 of my uncles are alcoholics (recovering). I love them dearly, and want to be there to support them. I do worry about my sister,who drinks,because alcoholism is in the family. I worry that she'll go the same way.
