How do you know what I feel? Do you know what it is like to be plagued with the fear of going to sleep almost every night? Do you know what it's like to try to avoid being outside because you're afraid someone might hurt, rape, torture or kill you? I don't mean to sound "holier-than-thou", but do you know?1
If so, how do you know?2
It's not easy to know these things, and much less to put your best foot forward and even attempt it. For me, there is no safe haven. Even when I am at home and I go to sleep, I think that awful things will happen. It's not the best thing in the world at all....3

Aden this is just a lil bit hard to comment on. But the question how do u know what I feel? is a very good question. People don't know you or what goes on in ur mind so when they say "I know how you feel" they really don't cuz they aren't you. I ask this question to myself almost everyday...and when someone does say I know how you feel to me I always say how would u know how I feel if ur not me? How do u know what I feel is a very very good question. But if you are going through troubles it would be a good idea to find someone who has maybe gone through the same thing or someone who might be able to give advise. I try to help ppl anyway that I can, but that doesn't mean I'll always understand. Nobody knows u better than u do...
