Close Miscarriage
I've now lost 4 babies to miscarriage... I was only 14 when I lost my 1st baby (the result of rape). I miscarried completely alone, with no medical help. I named her Hope because I felt all of my hope died with her. Then I had a 'missed' miscarriage 21 March 2007, @ 18wks. I was induced, & named my son Timothy Nathan. I had another 'missed' miscarriage 23 August 2008, @ 13.5wks. I was induced again, & named my daughter Chloe Susanna. I miscarried Baby Faith on 8 January 2009, @ 11.5wks...

Type: Clinical (Major) DepressionI have a long history of depression, caused by grief & trauma since early childhood. In October '07 I was hospitalised with severe clinical depression after losing my precious baby Timothy at 18/40 weeks, 6 1/2 months earlier... Looking back I can now recognise other episodes of severe clinical depression.

- Writing Working / Worked
- I used to really HATE journalling / writing because I was always terrified of having someone find what I'd written... These days I don't much care if someone finds something that I've written - it's the truth! - & if they don't like what they find they shouldn't have looked!!
Open Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
I have PTSD caused by multiple repetitive rape when I was 8-14 years old. I was never believed until a child advocacy group intervened when I was 14, but then I was told by my stepmother to never speak of it again. My many early attempts to get the help I knew I desperately needed were shut down by my stepmother who forced me to tell people that it was all lies. It was only a few years ago that I finally began to feel safe enough to start sharing some of those deeply suppressed memories.
