Child Abuse Story of Healing and Recovery From KC
by KC
(Location Undisclosed)
I am a 20 year old female who suffered over ten years of emotional and physical abuse from my step mother. She was originally my baby sitter from the time I was almost 2 til I was almost 16, and ran away.
I didnt realize how much I thought about what happened and how it effected my everyday living. I have 2 children and am pregnant with my 3rd. I have a loving and understanding partner now, who is always there for me.
I decided I was going to talk to someone about my anxiety and sleeping issues. They diagnosed me with PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder).
After doing some research, I finally felt relief knowing that is was actually "something", not just me thinking I was crazy.
I have made an appointment with my therapist and hope to do some major changing and getting control back of my life.
