Lookback: my whole life

I don't deserve to live

I was sexually abused by a teenager when I was between 4 and 11 years old. My mom blamed me and my father was abusive, too.

What I wish I knew
"I wish I knew I didn't deserve the abuse I suffered."
If I could tell you one thing
"Don't give up, even when life seems impossible."
