Overview

This memoir is for anyone who has survived the care system, for those who work within it, and for readers who want to understand the real, lasting impact of childhood trauma. He was just a child when the system meant to protect him became another place of fear. Placed in care at a young age, he learned quickly that survival depended on silence, toughness and never showing weakness. Abuse was ignored. Violence was normal. Trust was dangerous. By the time he left the children's homes, the damage had already been done. Without aftercare, guidance or support, he stepped from one institution into another world entirely - one shaped by crime, addiction and self-destruction. What followed was not rebellion, but consequence. A life built on trauma can only lead in one direction unless something changes. This is not a story of excuses. It is a story of cause and effect. Raw, unfiltered and deeply personal, WHO AM I? exposes the long shadow cast by institutional abuse and asks the question too many children in care are left to answer alone: when your childhood is stolen, who do you become?
