Jordan Turpin, who helped her 12 brothers and sisters escape from their abusive home deemed the “House of Horrors,” shared how she is doing four years later.

In an interview with People, Turpin, 23, opened up about her tough year and how she’s been able to get through it.

“Over this last year, I have learned a lot about mental health and everything. It was a really rough year,” she said. “The last few months it’s been really good because I’ve really learned so much about mental health [and] why everything has affected me the way it affected me.”

Turpin’s parents, David and Louise, forced their kids to live in squalor, where they were beaten, starved and shackled to their beds before she escaped through a window on Jan. 14, 2018, according to the New York Post. 

Going to therapy has helped her gain tools to deal with those difficult times.

Turpin shared:

“[These] coping skills help motivate me to get out of bed. I’ve been sleeping really well, been eating really well. I’ve been eating my three meals a day. I’ve been getting up early, going to bed early. I feel healthy. I feel good.”

Furthermore, the aspiring actress and motivational speaker, per her Instagram bio, who also launched her own merch line called Bravely, explained what she does to get her through her “down days.”

“I get out my journal, and I’ve really just learned to work with my pain. And I have friends and siblings that I can talk to and go to,” she said.

Turpin has also been able to find solace in her four guinea pigs and four dogs, along with her new puppy, Buddy. Earlier this year, she moved into a new home big enough for all of them.

“I want my dogs to have that big open space. I have such a connection with them,” she said.

Turpin added, “I can just give them a look, and they know what I’m saying. They’re just so funny.”

She revealed her dogs also “cuddle up” on her and give her affection.

“When I got Buddy, I got him at a time when I needed him. He’s my best friend and he’s gotten me through a lot,” she continued.

In 2018, Turpin, who was 17 at the time, climbed out of her home’s window and called 911 after she and her 12 siblings, whose ages ranged from 2 to 29 at the time, were subjected to horrific abuse from their parents, according to People.

In 2022, she revealed how she and her siblings were leaning on one another to cope with their trauma.

“We all look out for each other. We all have this super big bond. We have our inside jokes, and we’re all very, very close. After everything that happened, I’m so protective over each one. Nothing could ever break our bond,” she said, adding “I always try and stay strong and positive for them.”
