    Yay for bump. So dudes. My mom tried to kill herself last night. She's at the hospital right now, and she's gonna get evaluated this morning and they're all gonna find out how batshit insane she is.

    Oh hell's bells, that sucks. Why would she do such a thing?

    She tried to lie about it too. They have your bloodwork, mother. They know how much you took.

    Hope this translates into her getting some sort of beneficial treatment and ends up being positive in the end.

    Yeah, that's what I'm looking forward to. I'm pretty sure they're gonna prescribe her something for her crazies. The stupid thing about it is, it's just a big fucking temper tantrum. When she doesn't get her way, she throws these huge temper tantrums. That's just how it's always been with her. As of late though, people haven't been giving in to her because they've realized it, so she took it to the next level. She purposely waited for people to be around to do it, so I'm pretty sure she didn't really want to die.

    Your mom didn't turn crazy in a vacuum. I don't know how much you blame her for your childhood, but, her own childhood was probably just as bad or worse. That doesn't mean she gets a free pass for being a bad mother, it just kind of puts things in perspective.

    I had this epiphany about my own parents around 18, now, we don't talk or are very close, but, I don't actively hate them anymore.

    I don't want to sound like an ass, but, you are a child of your mother. So, you need to be extra aware of how you behave and more importantly why you do things, so you don't end up like her.

    Or, at least, that is what I do.

    I already know about her childhood. Things weren't perfect for her either, but she also makes shit up so people will feel sorry for her. She told me that she lived with my grandma her entire childhood, working like a slave and got beat whenever she didn't. I found about later that she only lived with my grandma for like 2 years, because her aunt took her in and spoiled her fucking rotten.

    Not to mention I am fully aware that I am her child, as well as the fact that I'm probably just as fucking batshit insane. The woman threw tantrums every other fucking night and tried to break my legs, you really think that I'm not going to be like, "Oh hey, maybe it's fucking hereditary and I'm going to turn out just like her?" Thanks for the pro-tip there.

    I basically hate my brothers and sisters because they all seem to lack the most basic of common sense.

    Parents are okay though, besides being almost ridiculously conservative Christians.

    still doesn't keep me from wishin' I was old enough to get my own place, though. Just for peace and quiet.





    man, compared to Leli's crappy family life, mine seems, well, not quite so crappy I guess.

    Well, hey, why not.

    My dad is a terrific guy. Honest, honorable, upstanding, funny, loving, long suffering, all that good stuff. Also, he was a Green Beret, so he has a fuck-ton of awesome stories.

    My step-mom, while she has her issues (depression, mainly), is a great person. We were best friends when I was younger and she taught me alto.

    My real mom is too good of a person for this world. She is kind, loving and caring to a fault. I love her and would do anything for her.

    The crazy person in my family? Me. Or at least I was.

    Near as I could figure, it was generic pubescent stupidity (no one understands me abloo bloo bloo) mixed with the ADD and depression meds I was taking (I don't think I actually have ADD, but my mom did, whole other story). I started getting angry. Like really angry. Like, I black out and come to and I and people around me are hurt. This was from 6th-8th grade when I was living with my mom. By the end of my 8th grade year I had been arrested a couple of times and had almost killed my mom over stupid random bullshit (I don't remember the specifics, but it was stupid, I'm sure). So, I got shipped off to NC to live with my dad. It took me a few years but I finally stopped being a prick. I'm now really mellow, I go to visit my mom all the time and call her at least twice a week, blah blah blah. I still feel terrible for all the things I did (and, with any luck, will for the rest of my life, because lord knows I deserve to) but I have emerged mostly intact and with a pretty cool family, too.



    tl;dr: My family is awesome, I used to me a woman beating douche but I'm an alright guy now.

    Edit: Fixed spelling.

    I'm afraid so, yes. And not just beat, damn near killed.

    There are no words for how bad I feel about this. We have made peace (because, as I said before, my mom is second only to Mother Theresa in kindness) but I still really hate myself about it. I was the worst person, back then.

    Oh, I see. No, he's really not like that, I guess. Would not have blamed him, though.

    If he had been right there when it was happening... he might have. Don't know.

    Adderall and then later Welbutrin and a third I don't remember. I probably should be on meds for depression now but I just don't really trust them anymore. I just deal with it. If it ever gets more severe, I might consider but... I just don't wanna go back to that.

    Too bad. I haven't gotten along with the guy in years
    And my grandmother is just as bad as he is.
    There's a line in The Ref about getting the grandmother "...a big wooden cross, so every time you feel unappreciated for all your sacrifices, you can climb on up and nail yourself to it."
    That's my grandmother, right there.
    If you can ever find a way to avoid getting in a shouting match with yours, I highly recommend it
