Hello
I am here because I feel alone, even though I know there are so many people like me. I grew up with an abusive older brother who tormented me at home, school and everywhere in between. He would get other people to join in, spread rumours and frighten off anyone who looked like they might be a friend to me. My parents wouldn't accept that this was happening so just ignored it.
I was depressed and suicidal for most of my teenage years and have struggled to get by ever since.
I have had cbt with a magnificent therapist and am started my healing journey. Like many people here, I am working through the grief and anger and hoping to find a life on the other side.
