Why can't ppl share and their private matters with their therapist or religious mentor? This is one of the reasons I don't like social media. The public don't need to know about personal issues. Most of us have been subject to some kind of abuse. LOLO
@11:09. When people come out to tell their personal stories/struggles.... It can help others that are going through similar obstacles. Her story will definitely HELP someone come to terms with their own abuse.
Shut up 11:09
To shut up keep your secrets and suffer in silence.
1:15 PM Kiss my grits.
We all go through life with some the same issue. That's why there are religious mentors and therapist. It's not necessary to run on line because your a celebrity and tell everyone. That's how I feel about it and I'm sticking to it. You don't have to like it. Bloop LOLO

Some of you are not able to comprehend or just want to jump on the comments with out following the conversation.
There is a saying that goes like this: "you can't heal what you won't reveal..."
Everything don't have to be publicize.
@ 11:36 just like you wrote what you wanted to write, they can do the same.
