When I was a kid, my main reason for doing anything was to impress someone. I guess I just didn’t think much of myself. Adults are more qualified to be judged by their worth. Kids shouldn’t have to worry about it seems to me.

Yes. Do you ever try to justify your existence? My brain just goes blank.

I feel like I’ve been trying to do that for years and fail a lot.
When I was a angry teenager, I refused to help, to do my share. It was very selfish of me. Now, at least, I can realize that an adult is expected to pitch in if he can. For we szs, that’s a big IF but I’ll bet there are a few things most of us could work toward.

I really wish I could do more…
So do I but I am at least aware that it is fierce headaches that stop me, not stubbornness.

Yeah I guess that is a good way of looking at it. Something that is out of our control is stopping us, not us. We are willing, but not able. We are not omnipotent.

Tell that to everyone around me irl. I just can’t stand having such high expectations! I’m ■■■■■■■ mentally ill! I cant do and be everything. I’ve made mistakes in life and they haunt me to this day! Why did I get dealt this hand of cards?

No I’m supposed to be superwoman. I’m making beer battered pretzels and my hubby wants me to clean the bathroom where one of his friends puked…he was in heat all day and only hydration was beer

Honestly I would love that if I got that a little bit more from people. But I understand it’s not universal.
They sound like drunken dwarves. Like they only want you to think your purpose in life is to only serve them.
