A little about me

Hi, I just discovered DailyStrength support groups and wanted to introduce myself. As a child, I suffered every kind of abuse from emotional to sexual. Since death was always a possibility around the flow of alcohol and drugs, I became afraid of dying. As I grew up my fears began to overwhelm me and anything loud or an argument would trigger flashbacks to my darkest times. Although I still struggle with PTSD, Anxiety, and Depression, they no longer control me or my life like they once did. With support from family and others in my community I have found hope in living again. Everyone can heal from their brokenness, but we need support to do so. I hope I can offer compassion and empathy to those in need and gget some support when I am struggling. Together, we can make life an adventure we want to live rather than darkness we fear to enter.
