Hey peeps! I am deciding to write a blog these days because I think a family needs to be disected. Partly mine...I mean there is no family on Earth that can match mine. I have a mother who has Multilple-Personality disorder and Bipolar disorder. Then a father who is a total Dictator and thinks the Army can fix anyone just cause it fixed him. By the by, my name is Matthew if you don't already know me. I'm not here to complain...journaling just never helped so: what the hey! I'll just create a blog! I have been a self-mutilator, alcoholic, and addict. I've gotten over them...most of them I should say.
You know, my therapist was able to describe my family a few weeks ago. What she described was a "Dysfunctional Family". She was able to pin all my family members and their personalities. There was the Addict(s): my parents/step-parents, whom were abused or abusive in a way to their kids. There was the Hero: my sister/step-sister, whom takes the focus off the Addict(s) and fills the family with pride. There was the Class-Clown: my brother, whom provides comic relief. There was the Loner: my step-brother, whom drifts off and does their own thing and no trouble is caused from this person. Then comes me...the Scapegoat/Trouble-Maker, whom gets into trouble with the law and at school. This person also tells the truth about the family, part of the reason why I was always in trouble I bet. However, that does describe my family in a nut shell.
I have been arrested once, but just got off two months early from 1-year Standard Probation. I thought it was cool to be with the druggie kids. Brought booze to school on one occasion, brought pills to school twice. Got arrested the second time, almost got charged with a Level-3 Felony, but it got reduced into two Class A Mideamors: Drug Paraphernalia and Possession. Spent 16 days in a juvenile detention center. That was a nice experience...I mean...not cool dude! Got to read all day and ate a good sized meal every meal. Got into shape with exercising and all, too!
Well, that is enough for tonight! Night folks!
