Yeah - he's only a young dude as well.
He told me he's 22 but - I think he's probably younger.
Social services were around just after he moved in a few weeks ago.
Told me he basically comes from a depraved background.
Super nice guy - which is why I gave him the green light to move in, cause most of my other housemates are some dipshits.
He's just cool, down to earth, full of conversation and pleasant humor.
That being said, he seems to exhibit clear substance abuse behaviour.
He drinks in the morning, afternoon, evening, and night.
He smokes constantly.
For a young guy - ess not normal.
I have studied neuropharmacology, and often this type of behaviour is exhibited by those who've suffered neuronal malfunction as a product of formative age trauma, due to the imbalances in limbic system dopamine it can incite - which is also the reason their conditions can deteriorate to mood disorders and/or schizophrenia.
He's missing his front teeth, for one.
Number two - he wears a red bandana around his forehead like a pirate.
Three, his mother has a barring order taken against him.
Four, his father has spent significant time in prison; his uncle is a homeless junkie.
Five, he's unemployed - I don't see how someone in his condition could be long term employable anyways.
So - all that in perspective of the fact that, in contrast to other housemates I've had, who come from well to do backgrounds, and mostly behave like spoiled brats or dipshits; he's a cool guy to hang out with.
We spend time chilling and just talking shit.
But, I'm apprehensive, given the aforementioned tendencies.
He says his plan is to begin a trades course or qualification of some kind.
I wish the best for him but - anyone have experience with something similar.
How could these things potentially pan out??
PS - I've been forewarned, and it's obvious, that I keep my room locked - he has a reputation as a thief, from the grapevine.
