stepfather

Post Reply New Topic

my stepfather is abusive and a chronic alcoholic. has been for years. i'm 29 and have other disabilities beyond autism. i wish i had enough money and the ability to move out. tonight was awful. he came home drunk. i hate him so much. i'm not good at talking about these things and i'm too upset for details. i'm barely out of a full-on meltdown. i was already under a lot of stress and now i have no idea how i'll be able to do what i need to do, for the rest of the week. i'm a student... or attempting to be. i feel completely out of sorts. i just needed somewhere to write out a paragraph. thank you for listening.

I've been hearing a song lately that contains the line "people throw rocks at things that shine" - I don't know if it was already a well-known saying but to be it's the best thing I've heard all year. It's bad enough that jackasses have to take out their insecurities on others but the ones that can't pick on someone their own size can quickly find themselves with their world turned upside-down once the prison doors clang shut behind them. It may be worth investigating whether you have Adult Protective Services nearby and if so, they just may become incredibly curious to have an interview with the dude.
