when I was younger, I thought I would have a wife, good job and a family, now I am 20 and that isn't even possible for me

Hey Guest,
An update on the OFCOM situation: As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. OFCOM, the UK’s communications regulator, has singled out our community, demanding compliance with their Online Safety Act despite our minimal UK presence. This is a blatant overreach, and they have been sending letters pressuring us to comply with their censorship agenda.
Our platform is already blocked by many UK ISPs, yet they continue their attempts to stifle free speech. Standing up to this kind of regulatory overreach requires lots of resources to maintain our infrastructure and fight back against these unjust demands. If you value our community and want to support us during this time, we would greatly appreciate any and all donations.

You are still young compared to me...you still have chance to make your dreams come true...
I am severely mentally ill ( i don't want to pass it on genetically), I have body dysmorphia, and psychical health issues
I wish my parents were responsible when they decided to have kids, I will forever resent them for it

We're on a similar situation then, welcome to the club. Though I'm still holding onto hope, maybe that's an error on my part

I am in the middle of you two - 30 years old. Never had a meaningful relationship- but got lucky with BTC so career faded in significance (was the only thing I was good at).
Career isn't everything but the lack of a family or relationship really fucks me up.
Loneliness hits like a brick wall.

20 does seem a bit young the more I think about it but honestly I attempted at 15 so don't want to be hypocritical.

20 is very young to have your life together and have achieved all of those things.
For what it's worth, genetics alone do not determine mental health issues. Depending on what you have, the percentage can vary and often genetic mental health markers are triggered by environmental factors. It's possible you do not pass on your mental health disorders to your children if you are mindful in parenting and control their environment. (This is not meant to pressure anyone into having children, just information in the case it is helpful for you to know)

When I was younger, I had a wife , good job and family.
My wife cheated on Me and ran away with my so - called best friend.
My well - paid job became so stressful that my anxiety turned into depersonalisation disorder.
My so - called loving family turned their backs on me when I became homeless.
Society brainwashes us into believing that We need certain things to be happy, and that we are are not a complete human being without them.
Yet sometimes we are actually better off without these things.

Dude, you are 20. Most people don't even start trying for a family until their late 20s to early 30s, so you still have plenty of time. Plus, even if you go on to never start a family of your own then who cares? A lot of people are opting not to do so nowadays due to all the issues surrounding us today, from climate change to unaffordable housing.
