Is there in any way to get a counselor involved? Unfortunately, you can’t talk to CPS because you’re an adult, but I’d think they would be the sort of agency that could sort it out if you can’t get people to talk or understand. Just keep going! 🙂

I did try to get a counselor involved, and she helped me for a while, but I couldn’t really get anyone else to deal with the problem. I wish I had been more proactive when I -was- a kid because things were even worse then, but I was way too scared and I didn’t believe that things were as bad as they even were. I mean there was no drugs, no alcohol, no bruises, so we were fine, right? Despite my friends telling me that we were not fine. Despite the counselor telling me that later.

Yeah, I think at this point, I just have to keep going. I feel like something has to work out sometime.
