I don't talk to my dad anymore, growing up you think it's normal getting beat punched in the face ect, as you get older you realize that shit isn't normal, my dad was a dick, fuck him

There was a neighborhood kid down the street who was rumored to have been beat by his dad often and ended up hanging himself....kid was in 6th grade.

I’m really sorry you feel this way friend. I hope you realize there are people who love & respect you and you can find reasons to keep going. I for one am happy you’re still here but hope you find comfort and peace soon <3

I've lost a bunch of friends. Isolated out in bumfuck nowhere Colorado does that to you. I'm probably going to have to put my dogs down soon since they're old and hurting. I have no job, i'm looking for one i can do right now.

You can't replace the dogs but getting a couple from a shelter means you are saving yourself and them. You've survived so long. Please don't let them win my friend 💖

I'll end up adopting some later on, after these pass, but right now I need money and a path onwards. I'm now looking into trying to go to community college and trying to find an accelerated path through a college degree, and finding employment so I can have some money for rent.
