Re- Everyone has a story.
Hi, my name is Angie. And I am a 13 year old girl who is afraid of being abandoned and I have really horrible insecurities. It started when I was six years old. My mom and dad would be constantly fighting, and my sisters and I would get very scared. One night, it went too far. So my mom kicked my dad out. I was very sad about this. I was six, so I was missing him and I was crying. My mom finally couldn’t take it anymore, so she kicked me out as well. I was gone for two days. She then finally contacted me and told me to come back home along with my dad. When I was seven years old, my parents went through a divorce. So my mom left all 3 of us for my dad. Being a single father with 3 girls really got to him, so he would always go out with friends. At a very young age, I had a lot of responsibilities. I had to take care of my sisters when my dad couldn’t.
In elementary school, I would get constantly bullied because of my family and the clothes that I wore. Because my dad was scraping to make ends meet, I didn’t have much clothes. Every day after school, I ran to my dad crying.
These years made me more strong, more responsible, more assertive. I learned how to stand up for myself. I am glad that I have experienced these, because it made me the person I am today. But also, it made me more insecure.
