Stories Of Hope

My Parents Didn't Want Me

When I was 3, my parents decided they didn't want me, so I moved around a lot.  My whole life was a load of crap, and I didn't want to live anymore.  I just wanted to die.  So I started cutting.  I had an okay life with all the other members of my family, but with my parents, it really sucked.  They were critical about the way I was raised, but no one was ever critical to them about not wanting me.  My whole life was shattering before my eyes and I started cutting.  I would just cut designs in my legs day after day, and watched myself bleed.  I passed out one night from bleeding so much that my parents took me to the hospital for a blood transfusion.  And I got counseling.  Now 2 yrs. later, I'm a lot better, but it was a long road getting here.  It took a lot of support from my friends, and my great boyfriend.  I'm happier now than I ever was before.  But nothing will ever change the experiences I went through.
