about

Hey, My name is Mandy Marie. I'm an Australian and always will be one. I still own the accent, but I live in the US. I recently just moved from Miami Beach to New York City.



I like : Long walks, cars, paintball, hockey, football, painting, drawling, designing, sculptures, sewing, gum, guys, animals, surfing, bungee jumping, sky diving, pizza, fries, movies, I like throwing gum at the walls and laughing so hard it hurts my stomach, I love to sing in the shower, dance on the highway, cuddling, hugging, kissing, talking, I love to run up and down the stairs, get kicked out of stores, to go to a restaurant and bring my own food, I like to make a nice tropical drink, I like to stare at the stars, to hold hands, to just drive around not knowing where I'm going, to take road trips.



I want: to own my own sex shop called "Getting Freaky in the Basement" or just pretend I have one.



I am: really nice, I promise! I will do my best to help you. I've been through murders, deaths, abusive relationships, eating disorders, breakups, losing my family and my friends, giving up something you have your heart set on. Please ask me whatever you want. I will always listen to you and I respect whatever decision you make.



For more about me: A survey. Yessss! (You have got to be so bored by now. Half of you haven't even read this far..)

advice

ok well first of im 13/f and everyone in my family is a drug addict, my mom, my dad and my brother(who is 21). right now everyone is clean except my brother, and i know im at a high risk of becoming a drug addict and im really scared. ive never taken anything except gotten drunk about 3 times. this is really hard to cope with. ive cut a couple times and my friends dont really help a lot. my dads been in and out of jail and in and out of rehab. and theres a lot of other things that i dont feel like going in to detail. but i dont know how to deal with this so my question is, is there anything i could do to cope with this better(ive already been to a shrink and it was no help) like is there any websites or anything and not al-anon(not sure if thats it) cause thats just people with familys who drink.. well thanks for any help in advance.

You know what, family is an important part of how you were raised but it doesn't mean you have to follow in their footsteps. This really isn't about them, it's about you. You don't need a shrink, you just need someone to talk to who will support your decisions and give you hope. You're still very young and I'm sure you'll encounter more problems than some typical people would. But use that in a good way. You are going to have pros and cons in each family. Right now your family is going through a rough time. Why they do it, I don't know. Maybe that is how they cope.

I'd hope that you would realize how important it is that you see their flaws and don't want to go down that same path. You are in total control of this. You aren't at a high risk sweetie, you're the only one who makes that decision. It's knowing what is the better one and choosing carefully.


You might not have a great family life, but try to make the best of it. My sister went into drug rehab too, and I'm not an addict. Never was. Learn from peoples mistakes. Drugs create more problems and much more stress. You definitely don't need that. Your family has already made the decision to take drugs and now they have to get their life back in order. It definitely isn't easy. But through all the hard times, recall what happened and how much damage it put on you as well and learn from that.


Talk to your friends about it. Adults tend to not fully understand the whole concept. Live your life how you want. And don't follow what everyone else does.


That's just my input.


Love,
Mandee
