Someone is hurting me

My dad used to slap me. I had bruises on my arms and legs. I was too scared to go home. I contacted Kids Helpline and they helped me through everything.

It took a while for me to open up to others but I got there in the end. Talking about abuse or assult it hard but it's really important to get support.

Being emotionally abused at home was really tough

,

I never found myself being able to break free. I had a fake smile and was always shy. No one knew what my life was like and that I hid a dark side.

I logged on to Kids Helpline and it was kind of easy to share my feelings.

My counsellor suggested many great things to help me. I have learned to not let negative thoughts take over your life, but to break out of the bubble and find someone that you trust to talk to.
