Hi Broken,
Wit and Itch is absolutely right! You do express yourself well and you have a hellava story - so go for it.
On the other hand, you are suffering from so many unattended to issues. There is much to sort out and put in perspective, not the least of which is your
self-confidence. One thing that should be somewhat reassuring, however, is that you did the
right thing regarding this clinic. You are saving so many people from being abused, ripped off and who knows what else. It won't be an easy journey, but it is a necessary one, and one that will probably make you stronger if you allow it to.
All the best to you and keep on writing! It is both cathartic and liberating.
