2:32pm as well, jeez... luckily I didn't mess up real bad but "Dan" my former stepfather claims to mom I was saying things about "taking them out" and such which is not true, my back was turned on him and I was pouring my soul out about my weaknesses/foolhardinesses and how I wish I was a stronger person, and instead he turns that around on me and uses it for ammunition so he can take over the house someday since I'm not qualified or compitent enough to run the house ... sigh. I hate when people are always conspiring against me

Paul... use honesty, openmindedness, and willingness... it will show your true self to others.

Keep coming back.

Hang in there, Paulos. Keep talking here.

Do you have someone you can talk to in person? A counselor?

All you can do is "the next right thing." Whatever that may be for you. Just remember "HOW" (Honesty, Openmindedness, Willingness).

Hello Paulos. I hope that you're okay.

We don't 'shoot our wounded' at SR do we, unless they become 'problematic'.

Some people get 'love bombed'. Others are ripped to shreds for comparatively innocent comments, by people who later apologize for having 'character defects'. I can cite some examples.

I am blunt about addiction. I came close to death and have lost family members through addiction. I take it seriously, but am not interested in personal agendas.

So I guess that I'm out of here.

p.s. I am sorry to newcomers, this is in response to some long running issues and threads at SR which you may not be familiar with.

I am not a new comer but I didn't understand your post Michelle.

Paulos, you are an adult living in your mother's house. Why would you want to take it over? Am I missing something here, are you talking about after your mom is gone?
A better idea might be to think about getting your own place.

Michelle,
I'm not a newcomer here either, and I know kinda what you mean by your post..(I'm not a love bomber or fan of love bombing..) but I have absolutely no idea how it relates to this particular post..

And Paulos, I know things are continuously difficult in your home with your mom.. what are your other options? I don't know how anyone here can help.. maybe a counselor or something is a good idea, to get you SOLUTION focused and on a better path with yourself.

Good to see ya still around, feller!!!

You may not realize how different your posts are...you're growing; just let it happen, hon.

I'm happy for you .. that you're still here, I mean.

Of course I care about the scene with the step and all that - but your post about it - and how you described it, and your relationship of self within it....
Paulos... it's MILES from when you started in here.

I hope you'll take a second and recognise it.

Missed ya!

I just saw that I spelled yer name wrong!!!

I'm so sorry, ******{PAULOS}}}}}}}}

I was a bit put off by the 'personal issues' post as well ...
I think if anyone isn't into other's personal issues' ...

they should refrain from posting on those threads.

IO Storm

Indeed.

Paulos...please check in.
