Story

Martin Billany took his own life after suffering with PSTD as a consequence of domestic abuse as a child. The pain and anguish caused by this physical and emotional abuse from both his parents left Martin isolated and battling depression.  In his own words - 

''I've made many mistakes in my life but I never hit a woman or abused a child & as I write this, my broken 💔hurts so much. I never recovered from the abuse I lived through as a child & now it's time to go. I hope you all can live healthy & peaceful lives. Love, Martin X''
