Secrets
The wrong attention or lack thereof can be damaging
Not having either of your parents in your life is a tough thing for any child to go through growing up, especially when the circumstances for which you are living take a toll on your life later down the line. The responsible adult in that child's life may not foresee the cautionary and damaging effects it may have on their children's lives when they isolate the other parent, constantly argue in front of the child with the other parent, blame the child for what the adults are doing wrong, or even distancing themselves from their children in any way. All these little things that our parents do while we are young will affect our adulthood, either good or bad, and parents should take more precautions on the actions that are being presented to the children in the household.

I Saw The End Of The World
I had already been in a bad state myself. Leaving the nest, as they say, was no easy transition. It certainly didn't come without it's heartbreaks. Living with my father had become a nightmare. Aside from the Bed Bugs eating me alive every night, and forcing me out of sleep for weeks and weeks on end, my father was allowing my step-mother to stay with us even after discovering she was the cause of the infestation. I never really liked her then. She was always mad. And they always argued. On top of it all, I was working a job that was killing me. Working until the late hours, then coming home to get mauled by a bunch of parasites, then being rattled awake by the constant screaming that would ensue most every morning between my father and his "lover"; you could see why I would eventually find myself standing in the middle of the hallway with a match and a dream.

Release the Cracken!
Hair, is one of the major concerns in the day of a woman. To be a picture perfect example of the “modern” woman spend a lot of time on their hair. They force their hair to be something that it really is. Hot irons, dying, brushing, and tons of products applied to the locks. I for one am guilty of mistreatment of my hair.

School? Nah, I Think Starbucks Instead
Let me set the stage: I graduated high school in 2013 and my senior year was...a challenge. My sister passed away, my health took a nosedive thanks to chronic illnesses that were progressively getting worse, I crashed and totaled a car (not my fault, but not a fun experience nonetheless), I had two concussions....you get the idea.

Growing pains
I wonder what it would feel like to share my insecurities in my relationship and not have it end with being screamed at. Having a boyfriend with a mental illness is no easy task. Carina knew this from plenty of experience. Take her first boyfriend for example. Some could blame immaturity, but from the inside she could see the instability and manipulation.

I Think I'm Psycho
My family, and people in general, often ask me to explain how my anxiety works. Most of the time, I can't figure out how to put it into words. Over and over I try to think of things that I can relate to that they can understand. Do I equate it to peer pressure? Do I equate it to stage fright? The list goes on and on.

Cleaning someone else's hair off the bathroom wall
Checking fees read part 1 https://offerdiscoveryhubx.top/confessions/overdrawn I learned how to deposit checks with my app, like before, so my paltry paycheck fixed the immediate fear but the prayers are worse. I still wonder what I forgot.

Life Through Love's Eyes
Would it be weird if all of your dreams could come true? It would be nice if we could only live out the good dreams, but what happens when the bad ones come true too? I’m one of those individuals that can see the future based on my dreams. The good dreams and the nightmares have come true. Some of them have not happened as I interpreted, nevertheless they have come true. I had a dream that one of my uncles passed away and that my family and I were not going to make it to the hospital in time to say goodbye. That dream came true. I also had a dream that my mother and ex lover were going to work together to betray me in an unthinkable manner and I’m currently living through that. Unfortunately, I saw people standing in line to enter stores such as with the pandemic, but I didn’t know why we were in line. I even saw myself being in situations with celebrities that weren’t so favorable. Being able to do this is a part of being highly spiritual, but what happens when seeing your future goes wrong? Let’s revisit this together!

I changed my stance on abortion after giving my child up for adoption
Several years ago, I gave my child up for adoption. I was not too young, in my early 20s, but my boyfriend (at the time) and I were not ready to become parents. Regardless, I've never wanted children, and I'm even more adamant about it today. Though I contemplated abortion, in the end, I decided adoption was the better choice. Who am I to end the life of a child simply out of convenience, I thought.

No Complaints
It is shameful to consider home as it is to some people. For some people home is feeling as though you live in a shanty when you actually live in a two story house. Because your own room never quite feels like your own space. Home means constraint and confoundedness, never being able to express yourself without being a threat and a nuisance.
