8th grade dropout step-dad beat the shit out of me and fought me from age 5 well into my early-20's. Mom ignored it for years. Eventually went to rehab for substance abuse. He's under the impression that everything is water under the bridge now, but I'm putting him in a shit hole nursing home first chance I get.

PS5s are out of stock.

Well that is a sob story indeed, Pikachu. Just throw him in a forest, even shitty nursing homes are too expensive for the likes of him.

Prison dad, dead big bro/best friend, unjust arrests, AIDS.

Why tag me? >_>. I couldn't be less equipped for this topic. I don't like to sob. I'd just come off arrogant in this topic with how I present myself. I laugh about my shortcomings and hardships. It's therapeutic for me. Also, I've heard some stories here and mine is very underwhelming compared to what a lot of other CEman and CEgals went through. Almost trivial to an extent

I feel you but I think thats the point of this topic. I like to laugh at the stories of my life too but looked at objectively they can be definitely presented as so-called sob stories. Shoot, my last P.O. told me my life should be made into a biopic. Thats a legit thing that happened too but at the same time I never would have looked at it through the sob story lense if not for her saying so and TC asking me to.

Yeah. You gave me a good view on how you process life a few months back. Your life is like mine with a multiplier on it. Part of my post was just me avoiding talking about my life atm tho, just don't feel like it. Plus I'm leaving in 15

Parents were emotionally unavailable my entire childhood. Mom went nuts when I was 13, started smoking crack, sold me out to pay for her habit. and eventually fucked off. She killed herself when I was 17. Dad became a daily drinker after she left but the drunken violent rages picked up after she died. He put his hands on me several times a week until I finally moved out at 19 about a year and a half ago.

Throughout my entire life, the last year and a half has been, by far, the happiest and safest Ive ever felt. My mental health is recovering at pace it never was able to before.

10/10 recommend leaving your piece of shit family!!

I was transported
To a far away
To a world
Where monsters rule

Dad is a narcissistic sociopath who felt I didn't deserve to live. I was beaten, abused, and insulted my entire life. Developed social anxiety and depression, began isolating myself from other people. Didn't properly develop needed social skills. So grew up with no friends, being bullied at school and abused at home.

I thought things would change as an adult with a job. Employers just use you, then I avoid co-workers too. Realize just how big of a failure I am. Depression deepens. At that point dad tried to murder me, cops took his side.

Find gamefaqs and spend about 14 years avoiding the social boards. Eventually get brave enough to post, and actually get greeted by people who don't want me dead. After a while I open up a bit, and get a wave of support and kindness like I've never felt before. Join the sanctuary board and discord server. At this point I've opened the emotional floodgates and 30 years of emotional trauma is pouring out of me. Everyone grows sick of me. Told that no one likes me being in the server, so I leave. After I'm gone some things are done behind my back, and everyone there turned against me(don't get the wrong idea though, it was my own fault). What little good will people had left got shredded and gamefaqs has just become another place that I'm not welcome.

Edit: So, I'm just living a pointless, hollow, lonely life, that doesn't even matter. Wishing I could be like any of the rest of you, or find someone that does care about me for real.

Yeah, there were moments in my life where I was pretty down but nothing compared to the time when

Have you ever found a new family that treats you better? You seem like a good person and there's families out there that would gladly accept you as one of their own. My family has offered and played that role for others overtime. When you're a respectful person, it's all just about finding the right community to help you shift your idea of how family should feel. It's super tragic when you just get thrown into the experiences you had with no say of your own. But now you're grown and you have say to who you consider family.

Even growing up in a family that's really supportive, I don't believe in blood having much to do with anything except chance. I think family is formed from the standards you set for yourself and those who respect you and treat you how you deserve. I believe in choosing family when you're older and don't think people should get any benefits from you just because you share blood. And if you're a respectful person, there are gonna be plenty of people out there who think like me and will see the mutual benefits of considering you family.
