As a 19-year-old woman, I have been struggling with the mental illness caused by childhood trauma. It has been an uphill battle, but I refuse to let it define me. I have sought therapy and support from loved ones, and I am slowly reclaiming my life. I know there will be setbacks, but I am determined to heal and move forward. I want to encourage others who are going through similar struggles to never give up hope. It’s okay to seek help, and it’s okay to take small steps towards healing. We are not alone in this, and together, we can overcome the pain of our past and build a brighter future.
