As a child I had every material thing a kid could want, but was constantly abused and now learning I was molested at least once at the age of five by a kid who was much older than me. I was very hateful and depressed and repressed as a child. When I graduated from high school I knew things would change and planned how I would live my life, little did I know, I was too sheltered to have seen some of the things happening around me, I was unprepared. So at first I lived in my own apartment, this made me manic, and partook in recreational drug use for the first time. While doing this I attended college and even worked one or two jobs for 6-7 years until I'd finally drained my resources and had to quit my job before I got caught up in some illegal b.s. the company was was doing. So now I'm back home with my parents, a junior in college with no money, job, or life and diagnosed with Bipolar II. Things could be worse, but things could be better.
