No one wants to understand

I'm a shell of a person. Inside I'm already dead.

The trauma of past abuse, being abandoned by services, friends and family members.

Nobody understands because no one sticks around long enough to find out. If you only see person a few minute of course you only have a superficial understanding of them.

Every day I hope I'll die in my sleep.

  • I've had a housing association flat twice, I also have been in four psychiatric hospitals, and several times been in different community mental health teams. I've tried everything I could think of. I did volunteering five times, college as a mature student many times. Whatever I did, I could never find acceptance. People who have not been through it struggle to understand. Abuse in your childhood can break you.
