I entered the world in January 2008, so it was a pretty big year for me. Hard to believe it’s been 18 years already.

    You think that’s bad, I got married in 2008.

    Then again, I’ve done a lot in that time, 3 kids into it, including 2 teenagers…

          • I just get so depressed because I recall that memory of that time when my father and mother were arguing about some financial decisions and mom threatened to divorce and abandon her “useless children”.

            I remember feeling so scared I just hid in my room and cried.

            I feel live me existing mader her so sad.

            Maybe I shouldn’t have been born.

            Maybe mom would be happier without me.

            I hate myself.

            I bring so much misery to this world.

            I wasted so much of my mom’s attention, time, money.

            What’s the point?

            I kinda wanna die.

            But then if I do, I basically burdened society for 20 years and “contributed nothing to society” and just “left this world so cowardly”

            Wtf is existence? 😭

              No idea what to say about this, or what it even is. But I’m sorry to hear it. I had a very similar situation as a kid, multiple divorces, used as a pawn in their fight over money. It’s rough, but I learned from their mistakes and have a strong marriage that works.
