And I just never got picked up.

And my time with my grandparents was, I mean, it was like night and day.

Like I went from being like dirt road meth house to like this suburban, sweet, amazing family.

So it was really special.

But then, you know, that comes with its own problems.

My grandma immediately just got like really sick.

And then it was a whole different struggle over there.

But I don't know.

I was really, really grateful for them.

I felt like rescued.

Like dirt road meth house, like legit dirt road meth house.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, it's only honestly kind of recently that I've started like unpacking it a little bit.

I feel like I had this tendency to like joke about it.

If you ever hear me talk about it on Canceled, I'm like very like, yeah, my mom's a crackhead.

Like, yeah, I was joking about it for so long, I think, because like I hated the feeling of like people pitying me or like say, you know, when you say something that happened to you and instead of people laughing, they're like.

And then you're like, oh, yeah, I really didn't like that.

So I always felt like.

I was kind of like dismissive and I wanted to just feel like it didn't bother me.

And I feel like you think when you grow up, it's going to get like easier.
