Rescued from the Deepest Pits I will begin my testimony from childhood. I remember at the age of five, I was living with my father. My mother was never around because she was sentenced to life in prison for murdering her husband and her father. She was drug addicted, mentally ill, and a victim of abuse her whole life. Well, I was living with my dad who sold methamphetamine and crack cocaine and did it daily. He was never around, he was always out partying and selling drugs. I was left home with his girlfriends. When I was six, I began huffing gasoline and spray paint fumes to escape my sadness and confusion. I would have hallucinations of funny voices that would make me laugh and feel happy, and I would see things as well.

I’d still go out with my family from 2001-2005, but after 2005 it collapsed to the point of not going out at all properly with my family as a whole. I’d still go places with my Mum, Dad and Brother, (but largely from 2006 to now even) I didn’t once go out somewhere with them to dinner or anything like that. The only notable, possibly sole exception was going on holiday in 2009 with them. In addition, the fear would dictate that I not go anywhere myself. Not even into a corner store or doctor.
