I think pretty much my whole life sucked. My real father left before I knew
him. My Mom got remarried and married my step dad. He would beat me all the
time and eventually broke my arm (nobody call dyfs, it's already taken care
of). I lived in fear of my dad most and prolly the rest of my life. My mom
was rarely there and did drugs with the downstair neighbor. She would cheat
on my dad and have sex with other men in my presence. Through the period of 5
to 10 I was raped on and off by a number of people. eventually my dad got
taken away from us and I was stuck with me Mom. then one night my Mom tried
to commit suicide, so then we were taken away from her and put into a foster
home. I was transferred to three foster homes until I could finally stay in
one spot. The last and third one I was in I aquired a taste for drugs at the
age of nine. So everynight I would sneak out my window and go and get drunk
or high or whatever I could do. I finally went back home with my mother again
and then soon after my dad returned. I got more heavily into drugs as time
went by, and started cutting myself. So now I have scars on my body. We moved
from where we were living at the time and all the raping stopped so that was
good. But I was still using and cutting. The kids in school all hated me and
thought I was crazy ( I think partly cuz I am disociative and I would switch
personalities whenever something got to hard for me to handle) But anyways,
they thought I was weird and they would throw things at me , come to my house
and yell stuff like freak and psychogirl, and just do all kinds of mean
things. That's when I started listening to Korn. I would sit there and listen
to Jonathan pouring his heart out, and it seemd in a way that he was trying
to tell me somehing. No, I wasn't delusional, I was just trying to explain
something I felt. I then began to think in a whole different way. And I
didn't care what the kids said anymore because I knew there was this great
man named Jonathan Davis out there that seemed like he could say anything he
felt and it also seemed sometimes he would speak for me and all the others
going throught tough times. When Jonathan stopped using drugs, I kicked my
habit too. It was hard to stop, cuz I was on a number of drugs, including,
herion, speed, cocaine, and I would drink constantly. But I figured if he
could do then so could I. So I got help, and along the way I have visted to
some emntal hospitals so people could figure out what is wrong with me. It
took seven of them, but I have made it. And now all I have to thank is
Jonathan Davis for helping me cuz I prolly would have never made it. And
that is how I feel about Jon Davis, the man who saved me from suicide.
