I take medication Zoloft, Xanax. Paxil, Prozac, Prazocin. I consume them like water; the only thing keeping me alive. The only thing worth living for. The reason I can function the way I do. I avoid. I avoid Luke and Dawson (K.C.) Illinois and Green Bay. My mother's threats, and my fathers grasp against my neck. I avoid. I have flashbacks. I used to see him, her, and them in my sleep. Her being the evil stepmother. Him being my cousin and classmate. Alas, them being the bullies. I played it out, event by event, play by play. I self medicate. Marijuana and nicotine. Cutting and burning. I would to it until I became numb. Lastly, I have "distorted blaming" Only blaming myself. For not saying no. Or not grabbing the doorknob. Or only taking my anger out on my mom.
