Here is a topic many readers have come to me with. Is Broken really real? Psychologists take up Broken and analyze the psychology. So many have reported picking apart the psychosis. Those diagnosed with BPD, PTSD, and trauma survivors have read Broken to feel not so alone with their own trauma, to compare experiences, and […]

The Voiceless
At long last. Here is an article I finally can write. It is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. No doubt we’ve seen countless information this month about abused women. No doubt, you will see countless more “save the abused women” this month. I do not discredit these cries of awareness toward woman. This article does not […]
The Trauma of Domestic Violence
For four weeks I’ve been sitting here trying to think of something to write that directly relates to my experience with domestic violence. One author requested a short memoir from me to include in her anthology. After Broken, I politely declined. I didn’t have it in me. But today I realized, for the last four […]
Surviving BPD
I need to state before I begin, I use “she” because I am female and the majority of those diagnosed with BPD are female. There are many men out there with BPD as well and the disorder is not gender limited. So your mate/daughter/friend was diagnosed with BPD. And you’ve decided to stay with them, […]

In Defiance
There is a “stage” process when a person heals. For a rape victim, there are variations on how a person may handle… re-establishing control over their bodies. Here is what I have been doing. Painting the house. This established control over the change in my environment and helps ground me as well as mark my […]
Breaking Free Conceived
So! After reading Broken you can imagine I am at the end of my sanity and needed to take some time off. I’ve been spending these last two weeks baking, playing Skyrim (Legendary expansion on the PS3. I’m a thieving/murdering Khajiit), cooking, cleaning, and painting the house. I’ve also been thinking a lot about my […]
