Hello my name is CJ and im 18 from Baltimore Maryland. I have had a tough life but i always knew things could be so much worse wich is the only thing that kept me going.
FACE REVEAL
My step dad beat me from the time i was 12-13. When i was 13 i tried to kill myself because he told my mom it was him or me and she chose him. She packed my stuff that night and moved me to my grandmothers house and didnt even say goodbye. I felt betrayed, like i didnt matter to my own mother.
My grandmother accepted me into her home and took care of me and i did so good in school because i wasnt stressed out all the time.
GF REVEAL 
Slowly i came to forgive my mom and moved back in when i was 15. I met joan in 9th grade my one and only. She made me feel like i wasnt a disapoinment and we've been together 3 years. After a month my step dad started beating me again. I got into drugs really heavy and soon stopped going to class. Soon after i had a mental break down and tried to kill myself again . I was so happy when mom came to visit me only to hear her tell the doctors i was making stuff up about why i tried to kill myself. I broke just alittle more that day and felt betrayed once again.
I moved back in with my grandmother soon after i dropped out of school. Ive been in a long distance relationship for 2/3 years. But despite all of these things I AM DONE FUCKING FAILING. i dont give a single fuck about what anyone says about me anymore. Im going to make miney any way i can thats why im here thats why im investing thats why im going to open up my own bussiness with my own money and my step father can stay unemployed and with my mom because im going somewhere i have the ability to pick myself up and i have im moving forward and up with no help this isnt a pitty party post im just here to say when you think you cant you can its all about prespective i wouldnt trade any of my life experiences for the world because I have learned from all of them and take value in even the things that I've been through with my stepfather its all about how you look at it guys
