being a victim multiple times in my live from an alcoholic father, having
little to no friends, moving in with family members who will call me names,
being scared to go to school because I am smack talked there too and now with
very limited friends that only use me to their benefit and are there for me
only when it's convenient for them. I feel very alone and need someone to be
there for me. Thank you </span></p>

drinking or people saying hurtful things, or telling them the things they are
doing is wrong is just a waste of time. Instead focus on you and

and goals you want. Remember you are your biggest strength. You have the
ability to change your life and the world around you. It not only starts by
