My whole life has been a waste. I'm a failure, a nobody, a nothing. I'm worthless.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀My parents were both drug addicts. My dad overdosed the day after I turned nine. My mom has been in and out of homes and rehab since then. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀The only good things in my life was my sister and my best friend, Jack. I couldn't save my sister though. She was pure and good, but my mother corrupted her. She's dead now but let's not get into those details. Jack... Jack had a good life and I was good at masking my pain from him. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀I hid all of the bruise marks, cuts on my arms, tears, every trace of sadness and despair. He didn't have a clue of exactly how messed up I am. Then, he chose Lilia over me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀I spend my life alone mostly. My schedule is wake up, take my pills, go to school, cry, then take a pill so I can go to sleep. Then repeat. Day after day. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀I am Madison Ziegler, and I'm a depressed drug addict. I'm a waste of oxygen, when there's other successful worthy people who could be using it. A lot of people would say I'm just lost, but I know otherwise. I'm unfixable. I'm broken. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
