I honestly didn't expect to find anything truly interesting in this inconspicuous section of BF, but I have to admit, reading your autobiography was worth coming here. I believe writing a biography at such an age is actually the best time: early childhood memories become dulled as the years pass, but they seem to remain vivid with most people under 20.

I wasn't shocked after reading your autobiography. I figured that, even before reading, that it would be something along these lines, judging from your prior admittances of self mutilation, your artwork, and your attitude.

Your writing is very good. The biography was very structured (Even for a chronological piece of work), and you used some good writing techniques; I even caught a few metaphors here and there. You don't use pompous words, which I am thankful for (Biographies should avoid any filler and icing, and be straight to the point).

While I do regret that you had to go through what you did, I also at the same time somewhat envy you. As you put it yourself, harsh experiences at a fragile age (If you survive, both physically and mentally) greatly contribute to the powerful person you will eventually become. Although I have endured hardships in my own life, they haven't reached the same extremes as yours.
