6/12: Share an experience from your past that helped shape you into the person you are today
I have lived a life full of stigma and pain. I had my children when I was very young. I was married for 11 years to a man who was very violent. For 10 years I heard all kinds of insults and blows that ruined my self-esteem. In fact, I was a member of the page before I met him, my other hopeful profile was @kahoss . With his dominant machismo he hacked my page and I did not dare to return to the site for fear of being humiliated and beaten. I felt like a dirty rag, ugly, dumb, and good for nothing. So I believed why It was what he told me every day. The relationship ended because he passed away. I never had the guts to report it. But my first step was to go back to the site. I felt empowered, energetic, furious and strong . I still have complex issues with my self-esteem and mental health. But it is you who make me feel loved and beautiful again. I learned that I can do it alone, that I am no longer afraid of fear. That now I don't feel ashamed to talk about being a violent woman. Today I am a complete and beautiful woman.
