I never really got into trouble, even in elementary school, no problems. We ended up moving to Whittier, so I was lucky enough to go elementary to transition to junior high to high school all in the same, like we all went together. I didn't move to different high schools and different things at that time. So, yeah.

So we get to Whittier and we're living with my grandma because we're trying to get our feet together and get everything together. And then we ended up renting a house next door. So I live right next door to my grandma, which I was very close with. So rest in peace. Charlotte, which my daughter. My daughter's. My daughter's middle name is after. So Olivia Charlotte Rodriguez after my grandma.

Yeah, so growing up, it's kind of, pretty relevant now, but back then it wasn't. My mom was a cutter. Right. So, from the age of, as early as I can remember, probably five or six, up until 25, probably, 22, I'd say she probably cut herself 25 times, went to the hospital six times, so, and she was an alcoholic.

So, but, her alcoholism was a little bit different than what my dad's alcoholism was, but, My mom wouldn't drink. You know, she'd go days and days and days and not drink. And then when she drank, she was getting drunk. There was no tipsy. There was no in between. She would get obliterated.

And I think my mom had some type of schizophrenic and stuff because back then we didn't know anything about it. But looking back now, like, yeah, I wasn't right. Right. So, you know, I'm six years old. My mom's cutting herself. She's on the couch drunk and I'm seeing blood. I got problems. I got nowhere to turn to. I'm by myself. I'm selling the child.

So I had to deal with that all my life until I was, I think she stopped at 25. And she was cutting, which we'll get into, but she was cutting herself way before that. But I didn't know that until I was in my 20s when I found out, wait a minute, my dad knew she was a cutter? I didn't know that then.

It was a different time because I sat there and as I got older, I sat there and wondered, why didn't I go live with my dad? My mom's got problems. I say this, I wasn't raised. I survived. Right. Which we'll get into probably periodically through this podcast was, I'm not trying to be arrogant, which we talked about. I'm just keeping it 100. I'm keeping it the truth. It is what it is.
