Everybody has dreams. As a little girl I dreamt of pretty fairies and magic ponies. Of mystical lands and handsome Princes. So what happened to it all? Why did my dreams become filled with demons which tortured me both day and night?

The answer is simple, I was abused.

It is hard to dream of pretty dresses when your innocence has been snatched away from you. You can never put the shattered dreams back together.

I know what it is like to feel totally alone in a crowded room. For every experience to be tainted by memories you cannot forget. I couldn't tell anyone what had happened to me for five years. I was scared and embarrased but worst of all couldn't face the possibility of people not believing me. In my head I told myself that they would do all they could to help if they knew. It was my comfort and i wanted to keep hold of it.
 
After five years of living in constant fear i could no longer cope alone. I was desperate to be understood and felt the only way I could be understood in the present was for people to know about my past. So out it came. I was raped by my father at the age of 12.
 
This site aims to reach out to those of you who are in or have been in similar situations and to show you that you are not alone. I made it through and am feeling more positive about the future with every day that goes by. On here I will share my experiences of both past and present and hopefully show you that there is hope. No matter how dark a tunnel is, there is always light at the end of it.
