I've always felt I wasn't meant to be here. I've never fit in anywhere, going back to before school even - there were a lot of kids in my neighborhood but even they shunned me and bullied me and I don't know why...I was no older than maybe 5 or 6 for goodness' sake! Then didn't fit in at school, at jobs, just trying to meet others and form friendships. I never even felt like I've fit in with my own immediate family (one time, a therapist even said that to me, that it seemed like I was born into the 'wrong' family, meaning we had such fundamental differences in how we communicated, values we held as important, etc. It was quite a shock to hear that assessment from somebody I'd never explicitly expressed told how like a misfit I felt even in my own family). I also feel like I wasn't meant to be here because there has been NO POINT OR REASON for my having been born: due to health issues I've never been able to build a career, or have a family of my own (I found out at 27 I was infertile and likely was unable to conceive or carry a baby for years before the discovery of my infertility); because of my medical issues I was unable to even have sex without it being a terrible, painful, awful experience. Certainly no pleasure...so I didn't get to experience even the most basic of human experiences. So there's been nothing really happy or pleasurable or positive that's come from my being on this planet. Nothing constructive or lasting or meaningful I've ever contributed to this world. Just failure, suffering, multiple diseases that make me suffer more and struggle more and have made me a burden to others who've had to care for me or help pay for my medical treatments. Also repeated disappointment, people leaving me left and right because I'm such a loser with nothing to offer anyone...just on and on. Just misery.
And the kicker is (and which really underscores my belief that I wasn't meant to have ever been born) -- my mom and dad tried for 9 YEARS to have their first child (me)! My mom even had to take fertility drugs. Then finally, they ended up with ME. :-/ However my sibling, who has had a much better life (some struggles yes, not all perfection and roses but better health, could have kids, has a job, has made a contribution to the world at least) was a surprise baby born only a couple years after me - parents weren't even trying and she was conceived. So I feel like the universe's message in all that is that I should not have been born and then I don't know why but I was. what a mistake
