(((UCLA)))

To put it mildly my family of origin (one I grew up in) is toxic. To protect myself and the ones I love (BF and girls) I cut all ties with them. It was hard to do, but probably the best thing I could've done for myself.

I also can't stand being ignored. I crave attention like crazy. I think its because I didn't get it as a child.

I'm glad you have something to keep you going.

Hang in there.
