Once you learn how to live a successful, fulfilled, happy life with your diagnosis, you'll be able to give that message to others, because there are going to be people who get diagnosed and they're going to be just as lost as you are.
What happens when the weight of childhood trauma becomes too heavy to bear? In this gripping episode of 'We Are The Stigma', hosts Melissa and Cody Kreutz sit down with 20-year-old Desi Martin, who bravely opens up about her harrowing experiences with childhood sexual abuse and the ongoing battle with PTSD. Desi’s story is not just about surviving; it’s about facing unimaginable pain head-on and finding the strength to keep going, even when the road seems insurmountable.
