A Little About Me And This Blog

 

I am a 26-year-old female that has had a lot of ups and downs in my life. I have reached the lowest of lows, and the highest of highs. Of course there are people out there that have had it way worse than me, but also there are people who couldn’t even begin to image what I’ve gone through. I grew up in the PNW (Pacific North West) all of my life, and I plan on staying here the rest of my life.

When I was growing up there were a lot of bad things that happened to me that I used to blame myself on. As I’ve gotten older I’ve realized most of the things that happened to me were totally out of my control. I found ways to cope and make it through this thing we call LIFE. I have continued to live when all i wanted was to die, and to me that is the bravest thing anyone can do. I have struggled with mental health issues from the age of 10 to the present day at 26. And addiction issues since the age of 12. I’ve suffered a lot of mental, physical, and sexual abuse growing up, and it has turned me into a beautiful person today. I always tried to figure out why these things happened to me, and my aunt always told me one day i would find out. I’m not totally sure this is why, but I feel I went through all those things so one day I can be of service to at least ONE person and maybe save a life.

The purpose of this blog is for me and my readers. It’s for me to process things that I’ve been through, work out some things in my head, and to finally move on from all this hurt. Also its to help me see the strength I had/have. So far I’ve made it through EVERYTHING in my life. This blog is 100% the truth about my life. It gets pretty nasty, sad, delightful, and really gets into the nitty-gritty. I don’t have my name in this blog at all for the simple fact that I am spilling my guts and would prefer not to have my family and friends know all of this about me. So i will be using letters and number to describe the people through out this blog.

The reason this is also for my readers is because i want other people out there struggling to know that they aren’t alone. There are other people out there that have/are going through the same things, or similar things. I made it so far, so can YOU. It’s also for the people who have someone close to them struggling with mental illness and addiction, to kinda get an inside look at what really goes on in someones head when they have a mental illness and addiction. Its to give hope to the people struggling.

In this blog I will be writing about my past and present. The blogs about my past will have a title about what I’m writing about and my present blogs will start with “Journal Entry Blah Blah”  I eventually hope to have my whole life story written on this page. I hope that this blog reaches someone hurting and gives then the little light that they needed to keep going and push forward.

 

LOVE,

ME
