Did I act with such stupidity and reckless abandonment Did I speak with such a loose tongue
Did I lie to impress I can only guess It seems such a long time ago.
Did I cry needlessly and think all day about myself Did I easily display all my woes upon a shelf
Did I turn molehills into mountains light rain into storms Did I try to make every one look at me like I was the only one
Did I really dress to impress strangers I did not know Bare a little skin ...to men Give a little show
Did I primp a lot and paint up my face Just to sit around all day and not go any place.
Did I choose to ignore life in a pill induced haze Did I hide and feel sorry for me closed in my room all day
Was I so self involved that others I did not see did I sit around in a saddened daze thinking of me me me

A few of these characteristics at 18? I think I had all of them, but fortunately, I also had ... a little brother. A great description - impressionistic, but very much to the point.

Sounds similar to the 12-year-old I have at home...have to wonder if I did these things myself. You have described that time so well.
