Introducing myself! I'm a rape and bullying victim, looking for support!

in #introduceyourself7 years ago

Hello, this is my first time posting for the steem comunity. I'm pretty scared to give my real name and location so lets just call me Jonh Doe for the moment. English is not my native language so sorry for my mistakes.

I'm 24 years old and I want to share a bit of my story with this comunity. This is the first time I've done something like this.

I've been bullied since I was in 2nd grade. I've had to deal with this almost my entire life with absolutely no support from my parents nor my family. My dad was a military man so he was never much around me, and when he was I just couldn't count with his support for my problems, he just didn't understand what I was going through. Man up he said, as if it were that simple. My mom well, she had a bit of an alcohol problem so I couldn't count with her either. She spent a few years in rehab and when she was at home it was just awful. Fights, insults, etc.

When I was 12 years old I was raped by a family member. I won't say who was it nor it's name (To this dayI'm still being threatened)
I don't want to get into much detail for the time being, just wanted to introduce myself and to see if there were other people with the same problems that could give me some advice or just talk.

I hope I can post more and get to know some of you in this comunity!
