(This is my first time making a new post so I hope I'm doing it correctly and have everything in the right places.)
My 29th birthday is on November 2nd and I'm absolutely dreading it. Ever since I was 15 I've always felt like such a failure around my birthday. Like I'm a failure because I haven't taken myself out of this world yet. I feel guilty, like I've spent another year using up basic human resources that could be better used by people that can actually function in society. I feel bad that I've allowed myself to live this long.
Does anyone else get this sort of feeling around their birthday?
