Hello there, thank your for clicking on this book. I mainly started this as an escape per say, I have not yet come to terms with some thing in my life so I needed a way to vent.


My name is Mayci I am 18 years old my birthday is October 17th 2000. I am currently in school to become a veterinary assistant and I will be graduated from this class on October 18th 2019 but I plan on going back to school to become a veterinary technician. My life growing up was alright I had a loving family and an awesome support, but in school I was bullied and in middle school I had really bad depression and anxiety to the point to where I began self harming and tried to commit suicide a couple times. While all this was going on I was still being bullied one girl took it as far as throwing a used plastic part of a tampon at me over the stall of the bathroom. What made me get through all of this was this website I joined it in 2013 so six years ago and obviously I still use it! I eventually became home schooled. In my freshman year I was happy I got to go to a normal high school it went well and I finished freshman year but the next year it went downhill, we got a new principal and some of my bullies ended up going there which caused me to become depressed and my grades took a heavy hit. What woke my parents up was when I was called to the office for two things, one was because I ran late to school twice so they made me go into Sunday school when I was told it wouldn't affect me, and for two when I called my mom after that I was in the office and the school counselor bluntly told me "Your teachers have brought it to my attention. You need mental help." and handed me a paper. My mom had heard everything and she had told me "Mayci go back to class I am on my way." That ended up being my last day going there. 

Since the home school I went to in middle school was only 6 to 8th grade I had to find another one, we found an amazing school that had classes on site if you choose to go. I did a veterinary assisting class that year and it became my passion and that made me decide my career path. My senior year came and my parents made plans to move in the middle of it so that ment I had to either move schools or try to graduate early, I did not like the idea of transferring so I put my head on straight and busted out a months worth of work in a week. We sadly had to break the news to my teacher who did not know that's why I was trying to graduate early.  In December of 2017 we ended up moving from California to Arizona. My first week of living here I got my first job and to this day I work for the same company. 

Now moving here at first was tough I didn't know how to put myself out there to make friends so I didn't

Now moving here at first was tough I didn't know how to put myself out there to make friends so I didn't. For awhile I was very lonely but I slowly made friends and I moved to a different position at the same place and I felt more welcomed.


In March of 2019 I started school it was stressful getting enrolled but we managed and this journey has been tough. Math the subject I have always had trouble with held me back but im thankful for my best friend Alyssa.


Now to something that gets a bit hard. When I was 12 I was diagnosed with Poly-cystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) which is described as  a condition that affects a woman's hormone levels. Women with PCOS produce higher-than-normal amounts of male hormones. This hormone imbalance causes them to skip menstrual periods and makes it harder for them to get pregnant. So I became to terms with this in the years of having it.

Recently I made the decision I wanted to get a second opinion of this diagnosis. So I went to the gynecologist  she did her exam and took my history and eventually got a diagnosis, not only do I have PCOS I also have something that is rare for an 18 year old to have. She told me I have Adenomyosis which is described as a condition in which the inner lining of the uterus (the endometrium) breaks through the muscle wall of the uterus (the myometrium). Adenomyosis can cause menstrual cramps, lower abdominal pressure, and bloating before menstrual periods and can result in heavy periods. The only cure for it is a hysterectomy, because of the pain I agreed to it but because I am only 18 no surgeon will do it so she decided to fight my insurance to get a medicine specifically made for this condition that basically sends me into menopause. As a 18 year old whose pretty much always wanted to be  a mom this news was devastating, but I considered my quality of life as everyday is unbearable to cope with the pain. Getting this medicine can take up to five months to get so I have to wait being in pain day to day which is awful. This was almost 2 weeks ago I was told this and I still find myself crying at random things but i'm getting back into class Monday so that can be a good distraction for me.
