Thanks for sharing your story, Leanne. Sometimes, the justice system doesn't always do things right. But, that doesn't mean you didn't win. Don't worry about relationships — you're young. You have more than enough time ahead of you to involve yourself with someone. But for now, focus on recovery.

But you aren't worthless. There's so much ahead of you. As Ali said, You're young. I know this is going to sound cliche, and I'm sorry, but things do get better and this is why we are here - to help you heal.
