Since moving to the UK and starting a new life I have started to heal from the inner pain that I have but it’s a gradual process. I have the trauma of years of being abused by my dad and also the additional trauma of the wilderness program he had me forcibly taken to. Also the trauma of seeing him beat my mom up so often. Now that me and my mom are free of him the source of all my trauma (literally meaning my dad) is no longer present in my life which leaves me free to begin healing within myself. For the first time in my life I feel safe and not constantly afraid of what may be coming next. That in itself has had a healing effect. I am receiving help in the form of regular sessions with a child psychologist who is helping me a lot. Also, I am able to just live like a typical kid for the first time in my life. My healing journey is progressing well but the journey is far from over.
