I thought of myself as a victim, back then. Now I am a survivor.

What if there were no years in my life that were happy? Seeing the parameters are in decades, I have to say never. There may have been moments of happiness, but they were fleeting. Abusive parents, abusive carers, institutional homes and paedophiles for most of the first two decades. Living...
