Just wanted to share with you all in the hope that it will help others.

*Please note trigger icon.*

I had the worst childhood, treated disgustingly and lead into things that no child should ever have to go through. Because of what I went through and the fact that I was told that I am *Nothing* that's what I believed and was. Still am nothing on a bad day.

But the point of my post is this >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Amazing things can happen, dreams can come true. Someone who was *Nothing* can be someone!

I have been in therapy for so long, I walked into that therapy room distressed and 'damaged.' How different things are now! I had a dream of being someone who could help other people. My therapist had a lot more faith in me than I had, I doubted I was capable of anything.

After a few years of therapy I decided I wanted to be a therapist. The best therapist is someone who has been there and knows what it is like to suffer. Yes, I still suffer.

But I stuck at it, battled away at rotten parent-tapes that told me I was useless and crap. I'm still learning and finding that I'm so much more than that!

Just want to say, if you want to care for other people, and if you want to follow your dream, if you want to be a therapist too, go for it! Dreams really can come true.
