It is only just my Dad and my brother and I. We have a roommate but he is pretty much useless. As soon as, even if only for 15 minutes, my brother and our roommate is left alone 90% of the time, he will leave to go to the coffee shop or something just so he doesn't have to deal. I don't expect him to deal with him however, so I cannot blame him. All my older relatives know very well of what goes on, and thought they once before seen us as outcasts and what not, they now, apparently, have a very high opinion of us for what we do for my brother. I have spoken to a teacher about this last year, and I ended up crying about it, and he loosened the pressure on me, and was a little more forgiving when I couldn't hand in assignments on time. I'm in the middle of getting to a psychiatrist, and as far as school now goes, I just go to my school, pick up work, and come home and do it all. It's a plan that was worked out because of my poor attendance, and this works better for me as school makes me feel extremely anxious and paranoid.

On the bright side however, I'm in a big sister/little sister program, and the woman who I'm partnered up with is taking me to this fair, festival, event thingy on Saturday and then for lunch afterwards. I've opened up to her a lot about my life recently, and she knows about my depression and my issues, so she's someone I really trust. It'll be the first time that I would have been away from my Dad and my brother, for strict me, and friend enjoyment time since probably September.
