never grew up in a spiritual household. Actually, I didn't grow up in a house at all; it was a methlab. Kind of strange that a child could grow up in the conditions I grew up and still learn from friends of their religions and still believe they could be true. So for years I kept faith, kept pushing through.
The abuse got worse. My life has been threatened by my own father, for doing nothing but trying to help my mother, who is not much better herself.
At 15, I developed stage V cystic acne (affects roughly 1 in 10,000 during their adolescense) over 80% of my face. For nearly three years I walked around with hard crust over my face. No one would even look at me, if they did it was in laughter or disguist.
At 18, I developed clinical depression. For two years I was so close to the brink of suicide it took everything I had to fight it off. My body was eating itself away.
I asked for help so many times, no help ever came. Does your God only help those who grow up privilaged?
