animal house= not good

[add294]

When i was in college i joined a fraternity. My father had passed away recently and i wanted a place where i felt accepted. A close friend convinced me to join a certain fraternity because it was "the hardest" to join. We all know what that means.

What i joined was an Animal House in real life. I was ok with this at the time. I just wanted a group that would accept me and help distract me from family problems. I was already using drugs and alcohol to self medicate so i did not complain. I failed out of school. No surprise.

I went through a lot of hazing primarily with alcohol but some other creative stuff as well. The majority of it was unacceptable and was ended during my time there once i became a brother. Im not sure what else to say here but the hazing i went through still has negative repercussions to this day. DO NOT tolerate that crap. It is not worth it. I still have problems with alcohol that stems from those days.

As a disclaimer the fraternity i joined is very anti hazing but individual chapters do what they do. The specific chapter is also now in step with their national organization.
