Story of My life

Being left by one's parents, whether due to abandonment, separation, divorce, or other circumstances, can have significant emotional, psychological, and social effects on an individual, especially if it occurs during childhood or adolescence. The impact of being left by parents can be profound, but it's not necessarily a life sentence.

Growing without my parent’s guidance was the biggest challenge I've faced for the past 19 years of my life. But for some reason I’ve fined the beauty and positivity of my life, thinking about being alone is not always being lonely.

I’ve found love by those who took good care and raised me. Growing and fighting alone might be difficult but I’ve faced it.

In my current stage in life one thing I want to do is to be the mom I want to have and continue building my family without fear and with full of courage and positivity…

Trust vs. Mistrust (Infancy, 0-1 year)

Maladaptation/Malignancy: Sensory Distortion

Virtue: Hope

In this stage, according to my grandparents I learn to trust or mistrust my caregiver based on the consistency and reliability of their care. According to research Developing a sense of trust is crucial for forming healthy relationships in the future.

Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt (Early Childhood, 1-3 years):

Maladaptation/Malignancy: Impulsivity

Virtue: Will

As a Toddlers I begin to assert my independence and develop a sense of autonomy in this stage. According to research If parents and grandparents encourage this independence, the child develops self-confidence. However, excessive criticism or control can lead to feelings of shame and doubt

Maladaptation/Malignancy: Ruthlessness

During this stage, I explore my environment and take initiative in activities. Positive encouragement and guidance help me develop a sense of purpose and direction. According to research If children in this stage experience excessive guilt or punishment for their actions, they may develop feelings of inadequacy.

Industry vs. Inferiority (Elementary School, 6-12 years):

Crisis: Industry vs. Inferiority

In this stage I begin to acquire new skills and knowledge, both in academics and social interactions. Success in this stage leads to a sense of competence and industry, while failure may result in feelings of inferiority.

Identity vs. Role Confusion (Adolescence, 12-18 years):

Maladaptation/Malignancy: Fanaticism

Virtue: Fidelity

In this stage I focused on developing my self-identity and a sense of who I really am. Exploring different roles and values is essential. Failure to establish a clear sense of identity can lead to confusion about one's place in society.
