Hello everyone,

I see a lot of people going through tough times just the way I am, so I wanted to share something positive. After being verbally, emotionally, and physically abused by my mother I realized that I could not longer live with her in a toxic environment. I was diagnosed with ADD, PTSD, and depression. Since then, I was able to move out with the help of some friends who let me stay with them while I went apartment hunting. I met some wonderful people (my now roommates) who I became very close to and found a job. My job was temporary and I was laid off during the holidays. After being unemployed for a while, I just got a job offer and will be starting work soon. Don’t lose hope! Each day is a new day and something different will happen. Happy new year everyone!
