The Human Aspect of Vanessa

After years of self-harm without removing the pain, suicidal thoughts took over my heart and mind. In my childhood, I experienced abuse, and I felt everyone could see that I was an abused child. When no one seemed to do anything about it, my loneliness and self-hate grew, and to cope with my own truth, I deeply repressed it. In my late teens, my past was triggered, and It overwhelmed me with suppressed emotions to the point where I did not see any hope in life.
