Fucking tell me about it. Now I'm left trying to catch up to everyone else at 26 instead of having learned life skills at a more normal age like everyone else. And yet I'm the asshole for being miserable and pissed off at my parents for not teaching me anything useful and trying to do everything for me like I'm a child, while at the same time getting annoyed at me for not being able to do the things they never bothered teaching me. Make it make sense.

Yep. 35 and in second year of uni. About 10 years to figure that shit out, and 2-3 years to redo highschool. At least we'll live longer then them, if civilization doesn't implode.

God, we have a near identical life experience here, even the same age funnily enough. Though I have childhood trauma from my parents on top of that

I relate heavily to what you said. It sucks hard. It really sucks feeling like you're losing out on your youth because you were set up for failure from the people who chose to have you and we're supposed to be the people who cared for you

Oh I have childhood trauma too, I just try not to talk that deep on it too often cause my parents are trying to make up for it where they can, they just get irritated at me for things they could have avoided in the first place. Plus it's a mixture of them and other kids screwing up my childhood. I'm just glad they're taking my transition so well honestly; they mess up all the time but they're clearly putting more effort into this than they ever did when I was younger

Thanks 😊 I made it with Picrew; it has tons of different pfp creators in different styles. It's a pretty close recreation of what I look like irl but I'm way more comfortable with this than showing my actual face most of the time
