Loc: Ewing, NJ, USA (IBS-D, Vegetarian)

I'm 21, and I'm the oldest and the only girl in my family. I have two younger brothers, who are 14 and 15. When I was born, my mom was only 19, and my parents weren't married (in fact, my dad was still married to his first wife), so they put me up for adoption. My grandparents found out about me, and helped my parents get me back when I was 6 months old. My parents were finally married when I was two.

My childhood wasn't really that happy. My mother was emotionally and physically abusive, and my father denies anything ever happened. My mother was also rather ill when I was younger, so I essentially raised my brothers, and didn't have much of a childhood. I'm very close to my brothers, and sometimes wish I wasn't so far from them (they live in Richmond, VA with my parents). I forgave my parents a long time ago for everything, because there was no point not to, and I talk to them every week or so, I just don't go home very often. I officially moved out of their house last June, and I consider my apartment here in Philly home. I'm completely independent of my parents, except I'm on my father's health insurance, and my father is cosigned on my student loans. All of my grandparents are living, and I'm close to them, though not as close as I was when I lived in VA.

*hugs* to everyone!
