In this episode, I chat with an anonymous guest that we'll call Ava. Ava tells her story of being molested by multiple people - a neighbor, her father and brother. Because of all this, she suffers from depression and anxiety. In 8th grade, she started cutting herself and later in life she considered taking her own life. Ava became addicted to drugs and partying at 16 and then found herself pregnant. She is now a single mom of a child with Autism.
