It’s wholly infuriating when the people tasked with caring, protecting, raising you ignore you or worse, inflame the problems. It makes me so mad I your behalf to hear your stories, even though I know there’s nothing to be done now other than what you’re already doing. It also makes me constantly worry about all the…

Yes! I believed her before, but now I’m 100% doubt free. She was living with a monster. And it’s not as easy as “just leaving” as ppl want to say.

Wow I hadn’t realized till now I was lucky in that respect - granny never puked. Just passed out everywhere, occasionally with a lit cig. Gramps did, but they divorced when I was 10 and so I never had that one on one alone time with him like gran. We had a live in housekeeper that took care (that he eventually married…

I used to cut all the time as well, but it wasn’t until someone *really* cared about me (my now husband) that I got help. He actually called 911 on me after an episode, because he knew it was serious and I needed help. Once when I was in middle school, I was like “I don’t feel right in the head” and looked up…

I also suffer from some mental illness, but the medications made me... just numb to the world, so I try practicing meditation, escaping in TV/movies/books, and my children have helped me find stability in their best interest, although it’s taken me years to work to a normal. I definitely abused alcohol in high school…

People that say that shit clearly haven’t lived with the constant terror of an alcoholic. I hate that so many humans refuse to step into another person’s shoes once in awhile, and don’t ever seem to care until after it’s happened to them.

Boy was I fucking relieved when me and my friends were old enough to drive. I’d spend every single night possible sleeping at a friend’s house. I dreaded my home past a certain hour of the day.

While inside you cringe and hope and hope that soon they’ll pass out or find another target, and then hope and hope that they don’t pick up the bottle again as soon as they wake up.

I’ve seen alcoholics be totally Betty Crocker while sober and alcohol can literally bring out a monster. I wish I’d had the technology to record my grandma and show her what she did after downing a bottle, maybe she would’ve stopped drinking. Either way, I guarantee he knows exactly how he’s behaving and is just too…

My husband had an episode where he kicked my car while drunk. We were just dating at the time, but it was so awful all the arguing around it that we vowed to never get wasted like that again. And I’m so glad. Can’t say the same for his brother who is so bad we don’t even talk to him and his family anymore because of a…

Yeah I know exactly what you mean. My grandma would get drunk and expect me to sit there while she called me names and accused me of things like being a lesbian and a prostitute, neither of which I knew much about at 7 years old when it began. Locking my doors and shutting her out infuriated her, but I’d just wait…

Wow people are GARBAGE

He also behaves very much like an abusive alcoholic. I grew up with alcoholic guardians, and this video gave me chills, remembering what I experienced as a kid. I wish there had been camera phones back then.

I was totally expecting snark!

My husband gleefully hums born this way.

Adele?

Lol this pic wtf

FINALLY 12 year old me is VINDICATED.

Ohmygosh how does he expect Zoe Saldana to be open long enough to film several sequels together? She’s not only in the Marvel, Star Trek multiple picture thing, but she’s doing another Columbiana on top of all the other shit she does in between... and that’s just her.

Holy shit episode 8 isn’t for another fucking year. If it’s like that he’s gonna have a helluva time finding slots with Marvel/Disney in the game. I mean is there a release date or is it all tentative? When the fuck was this Avatar movie made again? It feels like it’s been a decade. It’s okay to have random…
