I grew up in dysfunctional family, mother always screamed at me, my father lived with us but never saw him much and he almost never spoke to me

Was divorced twice by age 34

Lost my first child at age 2 yrs. Then had a miscarriage 2 yrs later

Lived in a abusive marriage for 5 yrs

Since 1998, had GAD

Was raped at age 14,

oldest daughter, left home at 18yrs old, then married a yr later and didn't invite me to the wedding

Gained custody of my 4yr old nephew and 14 month old neice, only to have the state where they lived take them away 5 months later, reason " we didn't follow their rules" that was over a yr ago and I still feel the hurt of missing them and not knowing where they are

I have 4 adult step children who pretty much ignore me, even though I have from day 1 treated them like family

I have moved 7 times in 11 yrs.

BUT, I AM A SURVIVOR and I am stronger now then ever, my Faith is the only thing I could always count on!!

Wow - I'm incredibly impressed how you've fought through everything, I'm sure it wasn't easy at all! It's amazing how resilent you are, the power for you to plough through everything is highly underrated. I hope you keep going, you're definately an inspiration to me today! <3 :)

My biggest obstacle would be being quiet, and getting through episodes where my illness is the worst. It's something that has taken me much time, but I've improved greatly and am a whole lot more resilient now. :)
