Things got much worse before they got better. My stepmother got involved, told me things that, in the moment, made me hate myself even more than I hated her, which was not where I needed to be.
But then I took care of it. Left my parents out of it, and now things are under control. I've taken out loans so tuition will be paid this year, I've signed up for classes, gotten a few jobs, talked to Alisa about getting things out of storage, bought some essentials (and I'm even looking at cooking for myself more this year), taken care of bank accounts and such, and even had an opportunity or two to have a good time.
I am feeling so much better it's unbelievable. Most of my troubles, it seems, have left with the rain. Not that everything's perfect, but it is still a welcome improvement.
Now, a nap and some free food, I think.
