My brother and his fiance just got on their feet, I guess, and she's having trouble finding job as a teacher so they're living in a 1-bedroom efficiency that isn't even big enough for them. I don't want to intrude on him, or anyone else. I just want this to blow over, as much as I know it won't.

My "mother" is on drugs. But they're prescription; ZOLOFT. And she is really chemically imbalanced. Because of her, I have problems with MY problems. With her, she never talked about what was bothering her. Her way was to scream and throw things, or hit us. Now, when I get angry or something bothers me, I can't talk about it. I usually just end up screaming and putting holes in walls. I'm imbalanced, too. But I use cannabis to do a lot of things that prescription anti-depressants never could do.

I remember her saying a week or so ago that she hasn't been taking them, she said then that she, "didn't need them." She's not on any other drugs, but a few days ago she asked me to buy pot for her friends, since I "hang out with potheads."

I just want to strangle her, really.

And, anyway, I'm completely broke. I haven't had a job for a few months, quit at the start of summer. Now I really wish I hadn't, as I could use any bit of money I have. Actually, I take that back, I'm not completely broke, I have $0.75 to my name.
