I'm FINALLY free! Well, as soon as I'm discharged from hospital.
I've been living with my adoptive parents for my entire life. My mom has been verbally abusive (sometimes physically) since I was a kid.
For a long time, we had an uncle in the house who was sexually abusive.
Everything came to a head when my parents tried to force me to take (a controversial drug) after we all got Covid.
We got into a huge fight and my parents disowned me for my vaccine status (I'm vaccinated, they're not). They told me I had to leave.
I got suicidal because I had no where to go... I thought. I have a chronic heart and a lung condition and I haven't been able to work due to my poor health.
I thought I'd end up homeless. And I felt that if I'm THAT discardable to my own parents, why should I stay alive?
But I got help. And now I'm going to live with my birth dad at his house! Just waiting for discharge and then we go get my stuff!
Everything feels surreal right now.
And I know this is kind of a weird thing to share on Torn.
But I wanted to celebrate somewhere.
I'm FINALLY free! And I'm really excited to start a relationship with my birth dad.
I've never had a dad, really.
I can't wait to do all the typical "dad things" like playing catch or going fishing or doing handyman jobs together!

This is my first time posting here, but... I gotta say, I've never understood why gaming is considered a dude thing.
I'm a girl and I've been gaming since I was 5. I do it because it's FUN. I think Torn is fun! Don't know if I'll ever make it into the hall of fame, but I play because I enjoy it. It's something to keep me going!
I have a few chronic conditions irl, so games are a way to get away from the hospitals, medications, tests, etc.
A chill evening to me is a bottle of icy ginger beer and some Torn or Rimworld.
