S1 E3: Poetry Put Me in the Mental Hospital - (My Story Part 2)

Hey y'all!

Let's continue the story, and move into my adulthood. All the trauma from my childhood was catching up to me, and I ended up in the deepest, darkest mire you could imagine. It took a lot to get out, and now I intend to help others do the same.

Content Warning: Physical, Sexual and Emotional Abuse, Self-Harm, Suicide Discussion - This is not a pleasant story y'all, but it's MY story, and someone needs to hear it.
