I was a late bloomer Steely. I was the beautiful, perfect one that was fully expected to complete college and do great things. Instead, I decided to rebel, and rebel, I did, in a big, big way lol. I got hammered, stoned, smoked my 1st cig, and lost my virginity, all in the 1st week after high school graduation, while camping w/my friends at the beach. I thought I was finally having fun, but didn't realize that was the beginning of my self destruction.
It took me another 30 years to figure out that drugs and alcohol were not the answer and I'll be forever grateful that I did. My poor mum never had the luxury. Her doctor dispensed pills like they were candy. Thank goodness the world is beginning to see that there's a prescription pill epidemic out there!
