5.0 star rating

I'm a 18-year old orphan who has experienced parental abandonment, physical, sexual, verbal, and emotional abuse by my single parent (father), loss of a parent (single-father, age 11), and have been diagnosed with clinical depression, antisocial personality disorder, as well as ptsd due to childhood traumatic events. I've been through struggles with self harm (cutting, burning) as well as frequent drug abuse. I've had nine failed suicide attempts, which has lead me to believe that I must have at least some purpose in being alive, of which I prefer to now help others try to come to terms with and have a better understanding of life after trauma/with mental illness. The first behavioral health center I was admitted to, and the first therapy sessions I personally received helped me understand myself as well as others much better, and I'd like to be able to provide similar experiences to others who've been through similar circumstances.
