Sufferer Hello - Abused by, and shot stepfather in the chest.

[LizAllison]

Hello and have suffered from PTSD since I was 17 years old. It was abuse from an ex step father I had that triggered it and he put me through so much. It was so bad I went to live with my dad and step mom whom noticed things were not right. One was the nightmares I had and my mom tried to ignore this. It was finally one day I had enough of the abuse my ex step dad put me through and mom got the message finally. It put a hurt on the relationship with my mom at times with him dead. Was choking me one night and I shot him in the chest, his pistol was near grabbing it. Was found to be justified. It was also from issues I had, knew I was transgender in a way since I was 10 years old coming out finally as transgender which I did transition now a very happy pre op MTF transsexual
