Hi everyone! I'm a 25 year old woman that has and still suffers from a lot of childhood trauma. Growing up, I was abused physically and mentally by my alcoholic mother. We will are in close contacts daily and I hope one day I'll be able to heal from this constant fears I have. I'm currently have my Bachelor's in Communications and I am enrolled this semester to get my Paralegal degree. My life long dream is to be Criminal lawyer but life doesn't always go the way you want it to, even though I'm told it's never too late. The mental abuse was worse during high school because I missed too many classes and eventually had to drop out a couple months before graduation because I was 2 classes short. I did get my GED the next month after that and enrolled in a local community college that fall and since then transferred to a University and graduated. I hope to meet many more people on this site as this is a wonderful place for healing.
