I was in a mental clinic being treated for a suicide attempt and drugs. One of the worst years of my life. I stayed for almost the whole year. I thought movies like the one where Jack Nicholson was in that mental institution was a joke. Until i was sent to one myself. Those places are aweful and heartless.

I decided I was going to change me. I had been shy, introverted, and very quiet. Studious. My mom said I woke up with the devil in me. That was her opinion. I started using my voice and I haven't stopped since. I needed to get my words out. To stop injustices. To let the world know how I felt. I am proud of who I am and of what I have accomplished in my life. And I am still a warrior for others. I think very few are set in their lives at age 18.

@Stereoguy It was hard to start. But once I got going, I felt so much better. It was liberating. It is difficult to change a lifestyle or one's personality, but the rewards are so positive and so inspirational. I can do most anything I set my mind too. Most people can. The effort is large. And I have read it takes 21 days to change a habit. Now a lifestyle is longer and so is a personality. But, if one has it inside, it can be freed. I am so much happier. I like trying new things. I love me. The more free one becomes, the happier and fulfilled one becomes. And the circle of love gets larger as your happiness spreads to others who see what positive change accomplishes in your life.
Are you going to make some changes, my friend?

Frustrating, and a little worrisome. I wasn't getting good grades in school, so I didn't know what would become of me after graduation. But then I got my first job, right out of high school. That was a relief, and very satisfying (though I wasn't making much money). So I guess it was pretty awful at first, but then it got better.

@SW-User It got worse later...when I married for the second time, and still worse again when I married for the third time.

I loved it. I was still at school when i turned 18 andbi loved it. I had the best friends in the world. Like was good. I was happy living at home with my family and i was dating a guy ( a very unsuitable one) whom i adored. Later that year i left school and went to work in a chemists....where again i was lucky enough to gave many good friends.
Being 18 was cool. X

@Stereoguy That does sound like fun. I remember how excited I used to get when I was a kid and then ice cream truck came through. :)
