"So you met this guy in school. He's great, he's fantastic. But your home life is a literal hellscape. A mother that hardly talks to you, years of trauma from your now absent father, and a history of having incredibly horrible friends? How do you get with this amazing guy if just getting up out of bed is enough of a chore? 
Simple answer. Put your heart and soul into breaking free from the cycle instead of trying to figure out how to do things."

This story is heavily based on real life events. Massive trigger warnings for a multitude of reasons. Obviously, I'll be using fake names and fake addresses, but for the sake of reminding myself and others how to NOT royally screw your life and fall into a rabbit hole of despair, this will be my almost word for word recount of many things I did.

My silly little self insert will be breaking the 4th wall quite a few, but only for the sake of pointing out the things I have done wrong, and how I fixed them. Again, absolutely gigantic disclaimer, this partially fictional story is NOT FOR THOSE WHO ARE EASILY TRIGGERED!!!!!All Rights Reserved
