Welcome to my life

I am creating this blog to help me to deal with all of my struggles. This space is where i can openly and honestly talk about everything and everything. From my depression, to the days where I am so full of joy.

My story

I was raised almost all over Canada. I have lived amongst many different cultures. I have played the role of mother to my four younger siblings at the young age of 14. I became a mother of three beautiful children. I have also been a surrogate of an amazing little boy whose father's adore him. I have not had it easy but for me it was a struggle. I deal with struggles of depression, and anxiety on a daily basis. I struggle with body image and self worth. I have dealt with sexual abuse, parental neglect, spousal verbal abuse and I have lived in fear of never being good enough. I have learned that I have always look for the feeling of belonging and that the feeling of unconditional support. I have learned that living my life the way others want me too or expect of me is not really living. With all that being said, I know about struggling with life. I don't have all the answers and we all need help sometimes. We all need one another, we cannot get through life alone.

My Goal

I want to share my story for two reasons.

Reason #1, Talking about and expressing my struggles will help me deal with each struggle. I was taught to bottle everything up and never really understood what I was feeling and how to cope with them

Reason #2, If this can help someone else feel less alone or help them through difficult time, it will have been worth it. 

A Safe place to share

This is a safe place for me to share my daily struggles and to build a community that welcomes every one and judges no one.

A safe haven for all!
