I get really stressed out easily. When there's a lot going on in my life that I can't control, I get really stressed out.
Treatments
Open Adoption
Type: Open AdoptionI was taken away from my mom when I was 9. I was in 2 foster homes for a total of 3 1/2 years. I got adopted by a family downstate that adopted 19 kids total and have 6 of their own. I wish that I wasn't adopted because I can't even have my birth certificate from when I was born. The bad thing about me being adopted is that my birth relatives aren't my birt relatives by law anymore and that really hurts me. My birth relatives are still my relatives in my heart.
Open Healthy Relationships
I recently had an unhealty relationship with my ex-boyfriend of 2 month. He is an alcoholc and he smokes. He would always tell me that he was going to get help, but he never did. I finally broke up with him on February 22nd of this year. I've also had unhealthy friendships in the past. People in the past have been really controlling. I would also like to learn how to be a good friend and to have appropiate behavior around others.
