Dear patgeds22:
You must have been in a lot of pain to use lots of drugs, to self medicate or to just feel good. And you must have experienced lots of hurt, as a child, and onward, to see a shrink for five years. My empathy for you. Why would I want to judge/ beat up a person in pain, trying to not be in pain…?
Trying your sister’s underwear, no evil there, it was a piece of clothing that you tried, no harm done. You being curious about doing something unconventional, well, it is not a crime to be curious.
Giving your girlfriend herpes through your cold sores is unfortunate, an unknowing misfortune.
Regarding the dog, well, it will take me some time for me to get the image out of my head. I strongly discourage such activities, but you were 12 and so, if you were my son, I would definitely extend to you full and complete pardon for that act.
I commend you for doing this challenge. I am not familiar with what comes next, after you wrote the above, what is next to-do on this challenge and this post?
