Depression is real. Somewhere the person who tells you not to give up on your life is fighting to live their own. They know the forced friendship with anxiety and depression takes tolls on our life and this urge to get rid of this life. Depression doesn't take permission to come or obeys the command to leave. It comes and stays.

Domestic Violence stories. These are NOT mine, if you see your or a friend's story on here and wish for it to be taken down please dont hesitate to ask.

"I married an abuser, knowing he'd never change."

"Don't Hurt me... Please."

Although one can say it is our duty to bring peace to the world through violence, I have come to believe otherwise. It was all due to one person, the same person who shattered all my previous believes right before my eyes. The one who lifted the veil that blinded me all these years. The one whom painfully opened my third eye. I am Sergeant Luke, and this is what I went through to break through the illusion I once called freedom.

Eva Delgado is a well established lawyer in New York city. She is known for her persuasive demeanor in the courtroom and for her ability to make even a guilty man, caught in the act; deemed innocent.

"You know my name ,not my story" As cliché as this may seem , it suits me perfectly. What you see is an illusion that I've perfected over the years...if only you could see my heart and the pain that I've put it through....if only you could feel the pain my body has endured. .. if only you could've experienced the torture ,the self loathing, then finally forgiveness and accepting what I have been through...so that you too could understand why I am who I am ..and how I have become so strong....You have NO IDEA who I am...only the illusion that I choose to feed to you....I'm not perfect, I'm damaged goods; and I've learned to accept that...just like I've learned to love and value my life as well... " You don't know me" This is an autobiography on my life and I will not hold back on any details...you are forewarned . This will be a form of me venting because to date I haven't told anyone of all that I've experienced throughout my life. You may ask why I am doing so now...well I'm hoping by me speaking out I can encourage another that there can be a life after any type of pain.
