ok so life story time so my dad was an illegal immigrant from the Dominican Republic and I unfortunately was able to meet him.my mother married my step dad and they had my half sister. he was in military and around the 10 they started to fight and and ended getting a divorce. me and my sister live with my mother for awhile she wasn't in the best mindset to take care of us so she let us have a vacation with our father and we never went back bc we told him what was happening.( just basic child neglect ) so we live in Colorado for about 3 month until he left the military And we moved in with my grandmother and there my step father met my step mother and they got married. she had 2 children at the time 16 daughter and 2 son. we all moved in. me and my sister we raised dramatic different from from out step siblings and we had a vary hard time get used to everything. especially me and seem me and my step mother NEVER got along like at all. I was always in trouble for stupid reasons I could never have a decent convo with her. I still can't. we would fight almost every night.(nothing against Christians and Christianity) I was basically brain washed into the church completely shut out my native american and Latino and Dominican culture away and learn my culture was wrong and demonic. I soon developed depression in 6 to 7th grade and still deal with it to this day. just some things that happened we our beds were taken. all our belongings except our cloths were taken. we were made to write 1000 or more sentences. content yelling and emotion and verbal abuse. I thought I new my step dad but after talking to him like I would normally alone my step mother took it as me trying to rip the family apart and from there on my step dad was brain washed to follow everything she said. she kicked me out for a week and sent Me to my aunts place and I never went back I was dealing with suicidal thought all the time till I left. when I left it got alil better but she still had a hold on what I did and I felt trapped ( BTW I was 18) I had one bf it was long distance but it was a nightmare....all I say for now was I hit rock bottom for a while I had ended up c**ing my self . then I got a new bf in irl and it was just a glorified bootie call.( at the time I didn't know and I was vary gullible and easily persuade) in concussion I was raped but the law won't see it bc I said yes even tho I was persuaded into it. all while the bf thing is going on I'm a a senior in a new High School in a new state so my social anxiety and regular anxiety was going through the rough and I ended up dropping out. I moved across the country to live with my bio mom and met my current bf and I'm living with him now. I'm doing much much better now and unfortunately don't have a good relationship with my step parents but it's ok. so now I'm working on getting my ged and a car .

      Im sorry all of that happened to you ❤️ But let me remind of of something, I am Christian & Afro-🇩🇴 and dont ever let some one tell you that our culture is demonic or our ways of doing things ! It most definitely is NOT ! That step mother of yours is nuts to make you feel like that. I will pray that you will continue to grow and flourish !

      Something that I learned, by being an only child is, first and furmost, you are YOUR OWN person. You are an individual. Now you may have been indoctrinated by your step mother with certain beliefs and incorrect views about yourself. Your culture is important to you, and also to many other people that share your same culture. You are important. And life would be a different place without you. Someday, you'll rise above these ashes, like a phoenix in the sky.
