My twin sister is working a full-time job, has a mortgage, and is productive each day. She has a degree that’s viable and going to get her somewhere in the world.
But unfortunately, my first degree was in an interest area, which funnily enough, she started in it too. I did this degree with the plan of doing further study after, as it’s not very useful on its own unless you have a fuck ton of experience, and someone takes a chance on you from the beginning.
I just wish I was a functioning human being. I’m so sick of feeling everything x 1000 and being exhausted from the second I wake up. Yeah doing a masters degree is supposed to be tough, but the level of stress I’m experiencing is unjustified. I think during my next therapy session, I will speak to them about strategies for tolerating discomfort.
I am so lucky that I get to do this course, especially in a time where there is such a bigger focus on highlighting and solving inequities in this country than there has ever been.
more mental health bullshit

I understand about the sibling situation. Mine was the golden child and I was not to put it mildly.
You can only compare yourself to who you were yesterday. I think that’s the way it works best.
I guess that makes us the silver children then. And I personally like silver better than gold 😀
I absolutely agree. Am trying not to compare myself.
Bronze child checking in!

I never compared myself. What I did was let family members define me ( and it was never nice ) I listened to them because I trusted them like family.
it took me a long time to figure out to trust myself and not them.
I’m a participation trophy lol
Me too
In high school, I came last in a walking event, but I got a first place ribbon, because I was the only girl in my house group who did the event.
