>emotionally fucked and trying to work on that

There's no really easy answers to this. The situation decides a lot. I am glad that I saved three lives from getting fucked up even if it meant fucking mine up. Eventually I'll fix it. If you feel a home is the better option, take it. If you don't, get ready to lie through your teeth. Either way expect emotional baggage that most will never understand, but will also try to tell you how much worse they had it.

Hope things get better for you.
A home is my only option, because my only family here is my grandmother, and the cpc don't usually let them take kids.

I hope they do to. I keep trying. Brace yourself homes aren't fun or easy, but it is better than being abused. Be smart, play your cards right, you aren't going to have a support net until you build one yourself.
