I’ve been dealing with home disruptions, legal challenges, book edits, poor sleep, injury, lack of movement, questioning friendships, boredom, and an overall feeling of blah.

But I saw behaviors early on. I saw the red flags. My partner was in recovery and as time went on, her behavior was that of a dry drunk. So even though she wasn’t drinking, she still had the behaviors… Continue reading Women – Canada

Bill came into our lives when I was four. He was the next-door neighbor. It started when he told me – do these things with me so they won’t happen to your little sister.

I met somebody when I was doing a semester abroad. I saw how they were vulnerable and sharing things that were going on in their life, and that they were seeking friendship.

How could I have learned so much in my life and made such a huge mistake? For me as a queer person who came out later in life, I think it’s really important to share this story.

Everything that happened in my childhood repeated in my relationship – sexual abuse, neglect, verbal abuse, physical abuse, and violence.
