So, you may or may not know that we are putting my beloved childhood dog down in a couple hours. So naturally today has already been a difficult emotional day. Now I find out my dad is being sued over a $100,000 for a car accident over a bruised knee and elbow. That's it. Nothing broken or sprained or torn, just BRUISED. This jerk wants that much for emotional distress and medical bills. Like, seriously? It makes me sick that people can sue for anything when they want money and throw it under the guise of emotional distress. I mean seriously, I could sue half of my middle school class for emotional distress and triggering of depression/eating disorders, but I don't because it's a low blow. I also take responsibility for my actions and emotional problems; it isn't fair but that's how life goes. Even if this guys RIDICULOUS claim gets dismissed, we still have to pay for an attorney and money is tight as is. I am terrified that I won't be able to afford college or be able to finish(irrational fear I know). This accident happened over 2 years ago, it seems to me that the bad economy spurred him to do milk the situation for all it's worth, but I obviously have a very biased viewpoint.
So anyways today has been pretty awful and doesn't seem to be getting better. I have been wavering between no appetite and wanting to devour everything I can get my hands on. I know that my posts recently have been needy and depressing, but any support I could get so I don't binge would be greatly appreciated.
