My dad won if I remember correctly around 1 million in the currency which is like umm (maybe around 8K) at the time in the last month of my mom’s pregnancy with me. And it stuck with me through life as my family always insisted I was lucky!
I am a lot luckier than my friends, with almost everything. At least I see myself that way. Maybe it is what helps me sometimes, maybe it is a denial of some sort. Other than depression of course and psychosis I am doing a lot better than most who were with me in my class etc. Maybe they think the same way about themselves But it is a belief I suppose
I mean my childhood was strange… my mom got ill when I was 8… During the last years of high school, I could not care about studies… I mean my life was average in a negative way.
Then I left the country and it triggered psychosis which started around 18 and intensified by the time I was 22
After trauma and now: I still feel like I am a happy go lucky person in general. Almost every time in Casino, I win money. I can not think of something in my life that I have wished for or wanted that I could not have. Absolutely nothing.
aye, why not share some of that luck? there is a 248million lottery draw coming up soon, share some of that luck? give me 5 numbers between 1 and 75 and 1 number between 1 and 15 … hahaha, doesn’t hurt to try get some goodluck from someone that’s actually lucky?
i am lucky and unlucky, like most people I guess, bad things happen and good things happen. I was malnourished and abandoned as a baby (unlucky), but I got adopted by a supportive family at the age of 2 (lucky). I had a great childhood and grew up with great people around me which made me a social person (lucky) ive been lots of places abroad (lucky) ive lost good friends and as a result been bullied (unlucky) I ended up getting psychosis when I was 18 and then again when I was 20, taking a very serious reaction to drugs when I was 20 that almost killed me (unlucky). though during hospital stay (5 months) I came out my shell and stopped having psychosis, got close to nurses and patients and got discharged (lucky). went to university again in another country in 2014 (lucky) never completed the university (unlucky). got into a gambling addiction (unlucky) but then again ive won some money from gambling (lucky?). you get my point, we go through life having lucky and unlucky moments, but overall some people will be more lucky than others. Id say I was pretty unlucky as I was born into a family that couldn’t look after me and ive had this crippling illness now for the past 6 years, however I have a loving family and we are pretty comfortable in the financial department thanks to my dads hard work for 35 years, though I don’t have many friends.
I am very unlucky, I lost my father, I lost my love, my marriage life is not so good, career has been flip flop, my brother does not talk to me, I have been diagnosed sz and bipolar and mom is ok types. On the other hand I am lucky to have a Job in hand.
I think that I am very lucky to be alive.
I am also making progress combating intrusive thoughts.
I am lucky to be my parents’ son, with great parents and with them giving me what I need and beyond.
