As my mother has said, "Its the only diagnosis that explains everything you've ever done since infancy, not including the drug induced mood swings/ hallucinations"

I've been through 7 classes of psych meds.

i'm grade 3 when i was living in Halifax.
i remember that was a very weird time for me. i was living w/ my dad and his wife, and she fancied herself an expert on me. she answered questions directed at me, wrong. i thought it was very messed up. i thought maybe she knew me better then i knew myself and it was me who was wrong. funny thing is she made AS worse for me. i didn't start going good in school and other things until a YEAR after i moved in w/ my real mum; and she tries to take credit for that! oh well, im happy w/ the end result
