BAISLE ALEC EVERSON Born and raised in 98' Florence, Italy, at the mere age of 3 years the boy had to be taken in by his grandmother due to his parents constant squabbles. He didn't have much as his grandmothers apartment housed only them two but she always made sure that he was fed and healthy. He started showing signs of PTSD at 5 years having reoccurring nightmares of both emotional and physical abuse. He began to isolate himself from others, avoiding physical contact, eventually he was taken to therapy where he was getting better but by the time he reached age 16 he had a major relapse. The boy was constantly in and out of fights, experimenting with alcohol and drugs, and refusing to see his therapist. It was then his grandmother started to take notice of his self destructive behavior. He was constantly setting himself up for failure on purpose as a way of "punishing" himself for ruining his parents relationship. No one believed he'd get better and frankly he had lost hope as well. But, one night as he was driving around, car window rolled down, the smell of alcohol and cigarettes polluting the air, it was then at 2 am, stoned out of his mind, that he saw how the simple things such as late night drives, a good paperback, the rain, the smell of coffee in the early hours of the morning, and sunsets made him. He finally saw how his parents divorce had nothing to do with him, and in that moment he vowed to make up for lost time and better himself. He moved out to California straight out of high school with nothing but what he had on his back and a couple of bucks he'd saved up after working at a local library in the summer off to kickstart his music and modeling career. To this day he suffers with substance abuse, intimacy issues, and his self destructive manner, but all in all the young man has turned over a new leaf.
