I guess I should introduce myself to everyone. My name is Christopher (call me Chris if you'd like). I'm 17 years old from New York City. My mom got back with my alcoholic and abusive father after a 5 year seperation 2 years ago. I have a 19 year old brother, and two sisters (13 and 6). I dont always get along with any of them. My mom, I can sometimes talk to, but about nothing personal. My dad, he's basically ALWAYS drunk and is both verbally and sometimes physically abusive. But not as physical as he was 5 years ago (still extremely verbally). I usually look towards three people to talk to. They are Mario, my teacher, Jean, my best friend, and my guidance councelor, Samina. I have to go, but I'll be sure to check in really soon.
