** HOW MANY OF YOU (ALL GENERATIONS OF THE PROGRAM) MADE U
« on: January 26, 2003, 03:46:00 PM »
To all,

    Just wanna ask how many of us (which Im sure has to be alot)  actually made up incidents from your past just because you ran out of incidents.  I for one sure did, although my stay at kids were for but a few short months (thank god), I just made up iincidents sometimes just to get some of the staff and oldcomers off my back about more incidents.  Well, just wanted to ask if anyone can relate.

With the exception of 2 - ALL of my "stories" were "true" events which had SHIT to do  with drugs and were all about strict parents and a rebellious strong-willed teen foolish punk kid -  to which I added the drugs or alcohol  as the motivator - so i could get the fuck (excuse me, but I just can't diminish that word with the usual $&*^&$#'s!) off of first phase and outta there!  For 3 weeks I told THE TRUTH and was sat down and cursed out as "FOS"  I looked around me at the Lulu's and the others rotting there and said to myself - FUCK THAT SHIT! So, I  went into  "survival mode" and embellished to fool those schmucks. I have always wondered how I never got busted for that.  Why did they buy it?  I thank God for it - or who the hell knows what my "program" would have been like - I thank God - and Kelly Smith, my sole oldcomer with a heart that had no room for viscious power trips!) ::bangin::   I was lucky.  Newton is a fucking head case.

HAHAHAHA....  Same here, except I did'nt wanna get off first phase because I just knew I would run away and fuck up my first night.  I did however lie just to get to talk to my parents, which only happened once, after that it was pretty much a hopeless case.  So I decided to go into living in my own head mode and just blocked everyone else out, I could've cared less anymore if they thought I was trying to improve or not.

I fictionalized many of my stories at Growing Together, but my best work was the story that got me off 1st phase (after 2 or 3 months).  After making my drug list a full page (of lies!), I was still being told I was FOS and wasn't moving up.  One day in group I got up there and I proceeded to tell a really really graphic story of hot lesbian sex in a hammock.  I even managed to cry!  Boys' side was very "moved" (ahem) with my tale and was quick to applaud my breakthrough.  It got me off first phase, which was great- but when I was finally able to go back to my own home my oldcomers forced me to "come out" to my parents!  I still haven't told them the truth about that.  It was terribly embarassing (seeing as how I'm completly hetero & now married with a child!), but it got me what I wanted.

I did it all the time. The idiots running the place did not believe my "drug list". ( I was in there for behavior) I got up in group one day and made up an entire story about drugs I'd never used just to get them off my back. They figured out I was bullshitting them eventually and screamed at me for lying, then made me sit down. I couldn't win no matter what I said or did. Thank God my parents finally came to their senses and got me the hell outta there!! By the way, LuLu was my oldcomer,(is that the right term-it's been a while?!and I lived with her for quite a while. I just discovered this site so I'm not sure about what I can or cannot say, but I will say this- I would love the opportunity to speak to her and let her know how much she screwed with my head while I was trapped in hell.

I think every one made up shit to get people off there back. My first couple weeks at kids I'd make up stories in my head while I motivated. The later  I got called on the better. The best would be when someone else got up to relate to me. The rest of the "rap" I would sit and dream about lunch or getting out of kids.. Getting caught with a bullshit story was the worst. The only time I wasn't making shit up was in fun raps. It was the only time I could be myself and not get in trouble..

Mr. Z, I couldn't agree more.
My personality had to be repressed to make any progress, either in El PAso or in NJ....

The first step to brainwashing is to strip away any individualism....
