OLD HIPPIE SEZ:
Just as I wonder how stupid it is possible to become, new messages pop up all the time here, telling me new records are made every day.
I think your wonderings have been answered by your very own post.
How sad, indeed.

Couso,
Welcome to the board, congrats on your new found freedom. Several of the board memebers are from Australia. Hopefully ya'll can hook up.
Sorry for the pain you've experienced with mom.

Welcome! It's wonderful that you have escaped at such a young age, when you still have time to make the right choices to have a fulfilling life.
I can sympathize with the stuff about your family. My mother always hated me. Now she's so sick and desperate that she can't even remember that she hates me. It's very sad. Sometimes I think I should remind her, but she'd just forget again.
Hope to hear from you often.
Regards,
Mum

Hey Couso
Welcome to the board! Try to ignore the naysayers... they pop up every now and then.
You will find some kindred spirits here too, so look for them, and happy bonding.

Hey Couso,
Nice to see you finally posting! I've enjoyed our chats in the chat room, and hopefully we'll get to meet face to face! Please email me if you ever want to share experiences - I have been in a very similar situation to you.
