    • About Me

      I'm 19 years old and I'm entering my 2nd year of college. My life has not always been a crystal staircase. I've been through abuse in every form, but sexually, I used to be harassed about how I looked, dressed, hairstyle, talked, my weight, etc. I have hearing loss in both ears and I sometimes feels like people are mad at me for something I have no control over. I actually need and wear hearing aids now. I used to get into fights in middle school because of what the kids would say about me and my family. I guess I'm a bit overly-protective when it comes to my family. Just ask my brother. I suffer from depression and I used to take pills for it, but they didn't seem to me that I was getting any better after 4 months. I don't have a father, but I sometimes wish that I did so that it didn't seem like that everyone in my family treats me differently because of that. I started cutting myself when I was 15 years old. I still do every once in a great while. I'm a semi-ex smoker, but I don't really like drinking. I've only been drunk once. My mother is a recovering alcoholic. I've done pot, but that was just a way for me to escape my reality and I don't do it anymore. I don't really know what else to say. If you want to contact me, you can find me at www.myspace.com/katds2008.

    • Open Hearing Loss & Deafness
      Type: Noise-Induced

      I was born with some hearing loss (or so they believe), but around the ages 2 or 3, I was getting really bad ear infections. My mother smoked in the apartment and it turns out that was making me go deaf in my right ear. When I was about 4 or 5 years old, my doctor discovered that I had a hole in my right ear drum, so when I was 5, they fixed it. As I got older, we find out that I was tone deaf and that I couldn't get hearing aids because of that reason. So I had a hearing system in my classes.

But I met people who accepted me and now I have so many friends, it's not even funny.
