Back to Turmoil: The darkness within me

I take the reader with me on my journey, as I pack all my belongings and finally leave my abusive home aged twenty-one. But although I am away from my controlled home environment, I cannot escape my bad memories.

Unable to cope with a normal life outside my dysfunctional family home, I drift from place to place trying to find sanctuary from my past but end up down a path of self-destruction, and into a courtroom. A roller-coaster of emotions, and an unexpected sexual encounter, which went against everything browbeaten into me by my father, put me over the edge, and into a tormented existence of guilt and self-loathing.
