I have had to overcome many adversities throughout my life. I was born with Cerebral Palsy. Because of my disabilities, school districts put me in special classrooms. I had to prove that I was just as smart as my typical peers. Almost every year since then I have won Honors Awards for high academics – all As and Bs. I even became the first disabled person to wrestle for my middle school and my high school. I had to go through the foster care system multiple times. I have had to deal with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. I have never let these things get in my way. I want to work in the area of Trauma Psychology, helping people going through similar trauma issues. I’d like to work for a veterans’ hospital and I’d like to be there for abused children. I’ll understand where they’re coming from, unlike a person that hasn’t gone through trauma. I want to work in Forensics, figuring out if people are mentally competent to stand trial. There’s a very high correlation between being a foster child multiple times and being involved in the juvenile justice system. I want to make sure these young people get the treatment they need so they don’t repeat the same behaviors. Most of them commit crimes because they went through abuse as children, repeating their parents’ behaviors. They take out their anger from their parents on people around them, because they never learned how to cope with having a very short fuse. I want to work with juveniles, abused children, former foster children, veterans and those accused of committing crimes who need to be in the mental health system. I want to help them learn to better control their emotions, to put them on the right path.

I want to be more independent because I don't like relying on other people to do everything for me. I have had to learn how to be more independent with my disabilities. I deal with a condition called Cerebral Palsy which makes simple tasks harder to do. Going to the rest room by myself; getting in and out of the shower by myself; feeding myself. If I don’t become more independent, I will never be able to live on my own, have my own family. I don’t want to have a job I hate for the rest of my life. I do want to have a job. If I live on Disabililty, I wouldn’t be able to make as much money as I would like to, so I wouldn’t be able to do as many things as I would like to do, such as buy my own house, have a nice truck, go on vacations with my family. I need to be independent to get my dream job of being a psychologist and helping others with mental health issues. I also want to prove to people that I’m not a vegetable that can’t do anything for myself.

My name is Gamaliel Pitkapaasi and I am an eighteen-year-old former foster child. I have had to overcome many adversities throughout my whole life. I was born with Cerebral Palsy and I have had to deal with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Even though I have these disabilities and experiences, I have never let them get in the way of what I wanted to accomplish. I’ve done well in school for my whole school career. When I was young, because of my disabilities, my school districts assumed that I needed to be in special classrooms. I had to prove to them that I was just as smart as my typical peers. I became the first disabled person to wrestle for my middle school and for my high school. Almost every year since then I have won an Honors Award for high academics – all As and Bs. I’ve had to deal with mental health my whole life. I had to go through the foster care system multiple times. I want to help people that are going through similar trauma issues. I really like the high school Sociology class I took. That got me even more interested in this work than I already was. I want to work in the area of Trauma. I’d like to work for one of the veterans’ hospitals and I would like to be there for abused children. I think I’ll be good at it because I can understand where they’re coming from, unlike a person that hasn’t gone through that type of trauma. I also would like to work in Forensics, figuring out if people are mentally competent to stand trial. There is a very high correlation between being a foster child multiple times and being involved in the juvenile justice system. I want to make sure these young people get the treatment they need so they don’t keep repeating the same behaviors. Most criminals commit crimes because they went through abuse as children. Many of them repeat their parents’ behaviors. A lot of them take out their anger from their parents on people around them, because they never learned how to cope with having a very short fuse. I want to help them learn to better control their emotions and be better contributors to society. I want to work with juveniles from the foster care system, to put them on the right path. With my college degrees, I want to learn how to help the abused children, the former foster children, the veterans and those accused of committing crimes who need to be in the mental health system.

I always believe there are better ways to deal with certain things. If I'm trying to teach myself how to do something and if one thing doesn't work, I try to find a solution. I have to learn how to be more independent with my disabilities. I deal with a condition called Cerebral Palsy which makes simple tasks harder to do. Going to the rest room by myself; getting in and out of the shower by myself; feeding myself. I want to be more independent because I don't like relying on other people to do everything for me. I try to see things from other people's perspectives. If I'm talking to someone about a controversial subject, I always listen to both sides of the story and try to understand why that person thinks the way they do. When I was talking to my Mom about Biden being President again, I listened to her thoughts and I could understand where she was coming from. It's important to be open to new ideas because those new ideas can benefit you in your life. Even if an idea doesn't work for you, it could work for someone else in your life.
