my life story..
by Tamara
(Sydney)
Hey guys, I’m Tamara. I’m aged 14 born on the 2nd of November I started getting into smoking and drugs after I was sexually abused for an ongoing of 2-3 years from age 6 until 9 by my dad's step dad. It destroyed my whole life.
I suffer from depression, and still have the urge to start drugs or smoking again to make me feel better. I didn’t get professional help to stop me from drugs and stuff, I just had the encouragement from friends and family.
I’m so proud of myself for quitting it ALL, I feel so much healthier now. I encourage you all out there who are struggling from similar experiences, please do whatever you can to stop yourself…
Going to a quiet place by yourself, or even just knowing you’re surrounded by people who care, really helps…
