This is pretty much the main reason I joined this site. The fact that there is a place on the internet to freely rant and let other people give their opinions is just what I think I need. Anyway, I'll get right into it..


When I was 15 my parents split up, it was a really rough divorce. I constantly fought with both my parents. My dad ended up losing his house and his job and now me and him live in a little apartment and can harldy make ends meet.

My mom is a fucking basketcase and has this asshole boyfriend that has attempted to stab me to death, not to mention is bipolar and has more moodswings then a 14 year old highschool girl. While dealing with all this and the fact that at 16 I was kicked out of school because I developed a panic disorder and couldn't stand to be in large groups so I cut alot of classes, I developed a drug problem.

I couldn't last 2 hours with out some weed or some cocaine. I went on just wasting away for about a year getting fired from job after job for either having a panic attack and leaving in the middle of a shift or for pissing dirty. For the above listed reasons my family except for my grandma on my mothers side ( has since died), one aunt ( heart attack, not doing well) and my father ( advanced Diabities) disowned me.

I was doing more and more drugs at this time, and would sometimes forgot where I was or how I got there. Then when I turned 17 I met this girl and we got talking and to make a real long story short we ended up dating. She helped me through alot of stuff and I thought my life was actually looking better.

Then about a year or so into the relationship I found out she was cheating on me and was also making a mockery of everything I had told her about my life. Her friends told me she constantly makes fun of me. Once again to make a long story short, we broke up. It was a very, very long and discusting break up. Sprinkled with many fights and getting back together and breaking back up. It was awful. A few nights after we broke up for good I was out crusing around and I was smoking a blunt. Well a few pulls in I started tripping out bad. ( I later found out it was laced with PCP) Which led me into a panic attack.

Then for about the next year of my life I spent cooped up in my room scared of my own shaddow. Everytime I moved I thought I was going to have a heart attack or pass out or something. All of my friends moved away and/ or got married. My best friend that I had known since I was two told me that his wife doesn't like me so we can never hang out again.

My panic attacks worsend untill I was 21. ( Which is also my current age) I still have some attacks here and there but nothing as bad as I did. So I am for the most part over them. Through out this entire time the only person that stuck with me is this chick. I just recently found out she has a crush on me but she is only 17. 4 Years isn't alot in the long run but right now I'm quite sure its illegal.

I don't want to ruin our friendship but I don't want to go to jail either. I do care about her alot, and I do even think I have some strong feelings for her. That in itself makes me feel like a bad person because I feel like I'm robbing the cradle, yet I didn't even do anything. I just don't understand why I constantly have to feel bad about something or be having a panic attack that makes it so I won't even leave the house.
 
It seems you have had some tough times, but you brought them upon yourself and you (hopefully) learned from them. Now all you can do is pick up the pieces and try to put your life back together. This girl is 17, in one year she will be 18 and completely legal no matter what. Depending on where you live the age of consent may be within your bounds, I know that here in Kansas, no more than a 4 year difference in a consensual relationship is legal. So I would say go for it, you can date her and as long as you don't have sex with her until she is 18 you are perfectly fine.
 
Most of my time is spent helping my dad. He has really bad eyes from his diabities and has alot of doctors appointments. Alot of time and money goes into all of his medical related expences. My dad was self employed his entire life so there are no benifits, no vacation time, no nothing. Which means if he doesn't work he doesn't get paid. I am out and about doing odd jobs like painting and gardening for people around the block. Yet I end up giving all my money to my legal fees ( I have more fines and fees for all my drug charges and speeding tickets then I care to even mention ) and to my dad. If I do have anything left I use it to buy food, which is usually about 10 - 20 dollars a week.
 
Were you to put as much effort into seeking the help you claim to desire as you do into making excuses... well, you get the idea.

My last bit of advice: Seek aid for food. No one should sleep with an empty stomach.
 
You're still young enough to just fucking BAIL and start a new life somewhere else. Maybe you should. You're not doing yourself much good living like you are, that's for sure. Plus..

Weed or Cocaine? Jeebus, what a huge fucking difference. I can't imagine why you'd not just choose one or the other. Anyways...

Of course, like most people, you're dealing with "family" issues that can't wait, and will eventually drag you down, and leave you wrecked. Yeah, I'm talking about your dad.

A parents job is to raise their kids so they GET OUT and get their own life, not drag them down and down until they have no chance.

Just a comment on society as a whole, sorry.

If I was you, I'd bail. I'd start over. I'd get to where the cops didn't know me personally and were looking for me to start more shit, they'll never leave you alone. How to accomplish this is the question...

Twice in my young life I just gave up EVERYTHING but the clothes on my back, and just walked off and started a new life. I didn't have the legal issues you do though. So I don't know if you can do it. If not...

Well... Good luck. You'll need it.
