I am sure you will continue on your healing journey and maybe you will become a mom yourself... then you will feel love twice... once for your child and again for yourself. I hope when you see your reflection in the mirror that you see yourself as the lovable person that you are... HUG!!

Thankyou

I did not have anyone else in my life to love or support me, my 2 sisters were 10 years older and mother did not like people in her house, so I was pretty much isolated with her. Its odd because she disliked me, even told me not to speak because the "Sound of my silly voice grated on her nerves " But she over protected me, though I think that was not about concern for me as much as she had a great need to micro control.
I believe if I'd had someone in my life who'd cared for me shown me some love a grandmother, aunty, anyone really I would coped much better, the world would not have been such a cold place.
Everyone needs someone who makes them feel special.
