Hey everyone, I’m 25 and I withdrew from college this semester. The pandemic is going on, I am in debt, and school is just not on my mind right now. I’m on antidepressants if that tells you anything. I’ve been lying to my parents that I’m graduating this semester though. I know, I’m so stupid for that. But I just hate disappointing them so much. I have two brothers that are doing so much better than I am. I’ve always felt like the family fxck up. I was just different. I have to tell them. I know. Like, immediately. I plan to. But dammit, how do I do this? What mindset do I need to have going into it? What should I say? I just need advice. I hate this feeling so much, it stems back to my childhood. I guess I have some unrecognized trauma there that hasn’t gone away. Disappointing people for me feels like the end of the world. The shame makes me wanna vomit. I feel it as I’m typing thing now. Sigh... thank you everyone.
