    About Me

    I am a 47 yr old single female recently relocated from Wisconsin to Minnesota for a new start with a new job. I was gang raped 7 years ago, got pregnant and had an abortion. Since that time I have gone through job after job, diagnosed with depression, PTSD, anxiety and panic disorder. I thought leaving my home of 18 years would help me get a grip on life and a new direction. Time will tell.

      Oh Starwood, I can't think of anyone I would have rather have heard from right now. I'm so tired of the struggle. It's so hard to imagine life ever being good or peaceful again. It's so hard to imagine that God loves me. I know you've been there(& had it harder than me)!
