    About Me

    I am 20 and a student trying to figure out my life.I am a all type of music fan, listen to just about anything. I am just trying to figure out myself and what my family wants from me. I cut and is depressed, I'm on medication and haven't been this scared in a long time. Just smile and walk away. That's all I can do anymore. Its not worth the energy.

    Interests

    I love to read and write, a lot of poems mainly. I always loose myself in my own head and daydream way to much, I guess that's my way of escaping reality.

    • Close Sexual Abuse

      the first guy i ever dated or cared for didn't like the word no and decided that he liked it when i cried and wanted to get away from him. It started off with hitting me and then ended with him taking my virginity bye force at the age of 15.

    • Open Depression - Teen

      The symptoms that you read on those papers for depression always made me think and as i would read them i could justify each of them on how i was feeling and stuff.I was put on meds that I don't like to take. I have a tendency push people away so i don't get hurt, i know i am loved but i wont believe it.

    • Open Gay & Lesbian Teens

      I have always been a little iffy iffy when it comes to close sexual interaction with a guy and that could be because of my abuse I have had, its just when I am with a girl I feel safe, I don't know if I am a lesbian or bi or anything, I am just so confused in my head, I was raised as if you were gay or anything it was a sin and I don't believe it, I just want to be happy. Yet I don't know what makes me happy.

    • Open Bisexuality

      I really don't know how to say it. I like guys but girls to. Its confusing to know what I want.

    • Open Eating Disorders

      I don't eat or I will eat late at night. I don't know if its a disorder or not but it does affect me.

    • Open Rape

      I was 15, I didn't know what sex was r4eally. I was always told you did it when you love someone. He rapped me. I said no stop we cant but he didnt listen. I had never been so scared. He took from me the only thing I thought was mine, he hurt me so much, I was so young and now I am just so scared and confused. I don't know if I can ever have sex for anything. I just am so unsure.

    • Open Military Families

      We aren't biologically related, but 2 of my good friends jointed the Navy. Kyle is in Japan and Ed is in Hawaii. Steve, the man I feel in love with who is in the Navy is now in Vermont. I miss them so much.
