My turn:
1) Yes, I was in the military. I served one Tour Of Duty in Liberia, and one in the Czech Republic (I was an embassy guard).
2) Look, Roran, cutting is dumb. That's all I wanted to say. I hold nothing against you in general, it's against the practice and the incorrect reasoning assosciated with it that I attack. Can you honestly say you don't want to be happy and speak your mind just because your friends won't like it? By the way, I don't care your from, no one is shot for being happy (as long as you're not skipping down the street whistling 'If You're Happy And You Know It'
).
3) Whining happens, I do it sometimes too, but holding a silent protest and cutting your wrists is not the way to go around doing it. Find a better way to relieve stress (I dunno...dancing?) Honestly, beneath everyone there is a unique person that wants to bust out of your shell of Bullshit and do what they want. I do that, I'm happy, and I'm rarely agitated.
4) Building on this, there's gotta be someone else who sharres your interests (or at least a lot of them). And I don't mean cutting and being unnecessarily dark and moody, I mean being the person you want to be.
5) I'm sorry about the problems you have with your family, but everyone has an obstacle they have to come over in your life. You say your Dad loves you, but you hate him back. It's my observation that this is the source of a lot of the bitterness and negative feelings in your life (oh shit, I'm starting to sound like a psychiatrist). Even if it hurts, even if it seems wrong, try to make amends with him. Confront him about the sleeping around, solve that problem in your life and move on. I promise you that you'll feel MUCH better if you get that out of the way.
