Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.

RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

So- I've been in a similar space. My resolution was inaction - just for long enough for the luck to change. I had used up all of my bad luck early in life like you. In the end it evened out. Give it time. Be yourself - wounds and all. Let them heal in the way that leads to peace. Let others help - that's hard, but important.

I feel like I used up my "good luck" at the beginning. Like my story is probably the craziest of all of Lemmy, I was the 2nd child my mother had, this was in Mainland China, One Child Policy was in effect back then, like I literally wasn't even supposed to be born. (I mean, back then, my mother wanted me, she I guess her "idea"/"imagination" of what her child would be didn't quite fit who I actually became, not "obedient" enough)

Now I feel like I'm in some final destination shit, as if "Death" is trying to find me. To "undo" this "mistake".
