My parents didn't wait till I was 18, a week after my 13th birthday they dropped me off at foster care, no warning. I thought we were going to the store.

Damn son that's colder than a polar bear drinking Coors light. I see why you're angry.

Oh, no, I'm medically angry. IED, ridiculously low serotonin. Since like age 8.

Being thrown into foster care only put into overdrive.

TBH it was probably IED and autism that caused them to put me there. I mean when I look back I don't see any incidents that would warrant being kicked out of the family and in foster care there were a ton of kids that had actually attacked their parents or stolen large amounts of money.

But I can also see how it would have been tough, but it'd been nice if they had let me know what they were planning to give me the decent chance to run away first.
