Happily ensconced in a 7 year relationship, have 2 step sons aged 19 and 16 who I love to death. We have a dog, 19 Guinea Pigs, 5 cats and 9 rabbits :) Having been physically, mentally, and sexually abused in my childhood I turned to self injury which I still turn to today. I am working through my issues and hope to support others through forums that I moderate at or run.
