Despite me being young and Christian, my life has been rougher than you might think. Let me begin; I was born in a small town in New Hampshire during Summer 03. As soon as I came out, there was a problem; I was dead. I was only dead for a few seconds though, thank God. Until I could show any behavioral signs, I seemed like a pretty normal kid. At age 3, people started to think I had Autism. My parents didn't believe nor wanted to believe that I did, so they took my to a child Psychologist. The Psychologist also told them that I had ADHD, so , they believed that instead of me having Autism. I was put on Guanfacine and Prozac -which I still take today- at age 5. I was bullied throughout elementary school and a little to this day. They finally figured out that I had Autism when I was in sixth grade. Finally! an official diagnosis! But by this time, I also had Depression and Anxiety Disorder. Autism, Depression, and Anxiety DO NOT make a good mix. Things only got worse when I got into 7th Grade, see, the town that I live in does not have a very good special ed system and I was already on an IEP and had been taking special ed classes for 2-3 years. I was thinking that 7th grade could be better...WRONG! As soon as I started showing signs of the Autism that I had -the sensory thing to be specific- They sent me to a building across the street to go to school, called The Academy. The Academy is a separated building for the special ed students. There was a lady there that I knew from 1st grade that I clicked with. She and a man that I call "Mentor" where what got my through 7th grade. It wasn't until this January that I was saved by Jesus. Now, I had been a Christian for my whole life but it had never become my passion to serve Jesus until I was saved. I made a couple more Mentors' this year to help me through as well. Things are a lot better, beside the fact that I don't do much/any school work. But me and Jesus can work on that together. Thank you for reading my biography! God Bless!
