This is a special series in which I will be interviewing 16 girls including myself about their experiences with Domestic Abuse to educate others on the signs and experiences, as well as the impact it can have on your mental health.
 
The reason it's 16? On November 25th the United Nations marked this period the 16 Days of Activism against Gender Based Violence, starting on White Ribbon Day otherwise known as the International Day for the Eradication of Violence against Women, and ends on December 10th which is World Human Rights Day. I wanted to use my platform to bring more awareness to DV, and interviewed 16 pageant girls from past queens to future queens each day.
 
Today I will be sharing my story, from living with DV as a child to experiencing it in later relationships. Remember that if you need help, please contact friends, family or if that is impossible there are helplines.
