My Life Was a Prison

Maybe my title is a little over dramatic but it sure felt like a prison. I wasn't allowed to spend the night with a friend ever when i was a kid. My first sleep over was when I was out of the house at 18. I actually got married at 18 to get out of the house. I wasn't allowed to drive. I didn't get my drivers license until I was 19. I wasn't allowed to do many field trips at school because I might get hurt. I wasn't allowed to play sports because I might get hurt. I wasn't allowed to get involved in church activities. My brothers girl friend brought me home from school once because I missed the bus and when I got home my mom threw a plate of food at me, I ducked and it hit the curtin. Guess who got stuck washing the curtin. I feel sometimes that the way I was raised. To not get involved and to stay at home is what has turned me against people alot of times and turned me into a hermit. Now I have made my own life a prison by fearing things and wanting to stay away from people. I am really tired of my cage.,
