    About Me

    I am a college student who just moved out of my parents house and into an apartment with my fiance. When I was younger life looked so nice to those on the outside, but looking from the inside out it was not so. My father was physically and emotionally abusive to my mother and emotionally abusive to me. My father molested me and my mom did nothing. Actually they are still together. This makes me so angery. I am a very angry person but I am trying to get that in check. I use to throw things a beat up on things. Not so much now but it is still a strugle not to be be so mad.

    Interests

    I love to learn new things, travel, work out and go shopping. Working out is my me time. Sometime the treadmill is the best place in the world besides sitting on the beach staring into the waves wondering what life could be.

      I grew up in an abusive home. I watched my dad beat my mom and now I have become a very angry person. I try not to be and I am working on it but some days it is just hard to not express the behaviors I onced learned.

    • Close Families & Friends Of Addicts

      Well where do I start. I come from a family full of addicts; drugs and alchol. Some days I am ashamed to say it but I live with it. The person that bothers me the most is my dad. He uses drugs like no other and as of 2 years ago he starting drinking and hasn't stopped! He is bi-polar and this isn't good. I am worried something may happen. What I dont't know.

      Talking Somewhat Helpful
      I talk to a counselor, family and friends. Some days it makes me feel better and others it makes me feel quilty. I want to hide my skeltons and not tell anyone but for the most part people can relate and it makes me feel better. I am not alone.
    • Open Sexual Abuse

      When I was a litte girl,in elementary school my dad molested me. I got the strength to tell me mom, she didn't believe me, my dad said he hurt my feeling. Its been years and I talked to my mom and she said I was only "violated!" The parents are still together! I wonder if my dad will do this to my children when I decide to have them? Also did he do it to my brother? If he did he hasn't said anything and I want to tell him he is not alone if my dad hurt him too.
