I write anonymously to give a voice to my inner child. The child I was - the one silenced by a narcissistic, emotionally abusive 'mother'. 

Here, you'll find raw, unfiltered and honest writing in many forms: diary entries, poems, fragmented memories, harsh truths and applied learning. I don't stick to one style or structure, but then again, trauma rarely does. Alike to myself, my writing style continues to grow.

It's about time I started being true with myself.

This page is for survivors of emotional neglect, narcissistic abuse, dysfunctional families and generational trauma. I guess, for anyone healing as best as they can... piece by piece.

If you're just here because you're purely a sadist and want to get off on my misfortune then I can't really stop you. Karma will always prevail.
