    • About Me

      Im a city girl that was going to school in the country but had to leave school and move back in with my mom b/c the last rape was too hard on me. But the move was better for me...and im happier now than i was then. Im currently taking online classes and I plan on transferring to another college in the spring. ... MY story...whew, well here it goes.... Since I was 5 my dad (a sober alcohol since 3 yrs prior) would threaten to hurt/ kill my mom or me. occasionally he would beat me or her. When I was in 7th grade I started purging daily as well as cutting myself. Attempted suicide a few times. Then when i was 16 i was raped by my then boyfriends best friend. I kept quit b/c of my dad. Was gang raped a year later on spring break by two older guys while my friends just watched... when i was 18 and had already moved away to school my parents divorced (yay!) and then on July 6 i was forced into having sex again by a mutual aquaintenance. In March of 08 was tied up and forced into sex by a random stranger who video taped the whole thing. Have problems with depression, anxiety attacks, etc I am an English major in college and Im actively involved in my church and in the community with different volunteer projects.
