Well, my sister is a self centered person. Even as a kid, she would always ask my parents, "why do my friends have better things than me? Why are we not rich?" etc. When she hit her middle school age, shit hit the fan. She got rebellious as fuck, family was yelling 24/7, always fighting. It got to the point she almost broke up my parents. Later, she ran away from home just to camp out at her friend's for a few days. She would hang with kids that were bad influences, she would do drugs with them, just the whole rebellious shit. And then one day, she just decided to swallow a bottle of pain medication and text everybody saying she decided to die. What the fuck. She writes it off as she was depressed but the psych evaluated her and said she's fine. She exhibits attention seeking behavior and does to this day. After that suicide attempt though, something clicked. She stopped associating with the bozos, she got her life together, and now she's on track to make way more $$$ than me.

Me: Two years older. Straight A student. Got into a big ten school (top notch public university). Went in wanting to do pre-med/engineering. Had never done substances, anything bad or rebellious. Met my first girlfriend. Neglected school work, almost got kicked out of school. Discovered weed. Became a 200$/week habit. Started experimenting with other drugs. Went a semester tripping balls on 200-400 microgram doses weekly. Snorted cocaine. Took pills I don't even know what they were. Now? Finally kicked my weed habit, stopped experimenting with drugs. Switched out of engineering and trying to piece my life back together. Now it's a matter of time before I get my shit together but now I'm the source of shame/stress in the family. On the irony...
