My issues and dealing.

I am not one to bring up the past much, but in a counselors office. May be I need to more often and be truthful with my self.

I will start with, I was abused by my grandmother when I was seven years old till I was nine, and she is crazy to the point, when I end up in the hospital and she finds out. She goes there and tells my mom how horrible she is and it's her fault. When that's not true, I have a rare movement disorder and end up in the hospital because of that not something my mom has done.

I ended up getting brain surgery about a year and a half ago and doing very well. I got off the medication for my mental illness, because it was what caused my rare movement disorder. Now I am doing so much better I have no more issues with my mental illness, only my movement disorder. My doctor in LA who did the surgery he is awesome he says I am doing very will and very proud of me and my progress. I am engaged to a grate man who I can say with all my soul is my soul-mate.

Though I do try to get over the other stuff in my past, like that fact my mom did drugs and drank all the time till I was 13 or 14, and my dad the same. They were horrible to each other when they were married, and now they are okay with each other. They have been separated when I was five that's when I moved in with my grandmother and things started with her.

I also let them think I can't do much even though I do my best to show them I can do what ever I put my mind to.
