My name is Alyssa:
Ever since I was a child I pretended everything was ok. I was sweet and kind but, on the inside I was damaged and I was slowly killing myself.

My mom drinks and goes crazy. My dad is in jail for touching me when I was little. Of course I thought I could never trust a boy again.

Ever since I was in school people kept calling me ugly, fat, disgusting, every name in the book then.....

I started to believe that all of that stuff was true so, everyday I would wake up go to the mirror and cry and look at myself and I would call myself everything terrible.

People would call me poor because, my mom can never keep a job so, I would wear t-shirts and jeans with old thrift shop flip flops. I would just draw my feelings on paper. Not one person would sit with me at lunch cuz they always called me a fat slob.

Even though I'm nice people still don't like me. I'm not great at school work. People say the shy kid is always smart but, not for me. I wanted to die...
