I am a good listener! I grew up being the second oldest of 11 children. I was fostered at 8 weeks old. And adopted around the age of 2. Anyway just a little bit about me. I have a big heart. I love and care about everyone deeply. I am empathetic, compassionate, and encouraging. Just to name a few.

I do have some of my own struggles… I struggle with generalized anxiety disorder, major depressive disorder, and borderline personality disorder. I have been in and out of hospitals and crisis centers since 2018 because of issues that went on. Over the last 6 months I have matured a lot mentally. I have my days when I take a few to several steps back. But I have to remind myself to keep my eye on the prize. And work hard on the skills that I have learned over the last few years. And I have to keep my faith strong! My Lord is my everything.

Just so you know you are not alone in this journey! You can and will overcome anything that you put your mind to. You will reach your turning point one of these days. Just keep believing in yourself and stay strong!
