I really have nothing going for me. In my house, I'm not known for anything. Just lazy and someone who back talks. My sister is the creative one who has good grades. My brother is the gamer who has a lot friends. And I'm the girl who reads too much and has grades that always should be better. My sister is doing more stuff and has good grades. And I'm not involved in school things like clubs, so apparently my grades should be better than my sister's. She has band after school for 4 hrs, and all I do is waste time at home. My sister is the one who will make money creating things, and baking. My brother is the one that will definitely be a millionaire entrepreneur when he grows up. But me, I'll be boring. I'm not recognized for anything. I'm never good enough, I'm just so average. And it pisses me off. Every day my parents always mention my sister, saying to sell her art and how she'll make money cause she good at it. My dad said that if she learns drumming she'll be good, same with my brother too. And I'll be sitting right next to them, but they don't mention me. They don't know me, and I'm sure they can't imagine what I'll be when I grow up. It's like everyone else has something, a purpose, or hobby, but I really have nothing. I don't even know what classes I'm taking next year for high school. I really don't know what I'm doing in my life. I'm just so tired of everything. I have 2 more years. I dealed with 3, so what's wrong with two more. After that I'm leaving this place, it's really suffocating, and my parents don't know that. I honestly can't wait to leave, it's what I'm looking forward to. So what I'll be alone for the rest of my life, I don't care if I have friends. I don't need them. I'll leave and go to college, get a job, and do whatever I want. I'll have some freedom for once. I won't have to worry anymore and everything will get better. It will, i really hope it does get better.

@bobaTeaa1234 I'm really sorry that you're feeling this way πŸ™ You're not pathetic ❀️ I can relate, seeing others doing well can sometimes make us feel like we're not doing enough or were behind, but you're really not, everyone has different learning speed, talents and skills they're good at.

Please be gentle with yourself πŸ’– You don't have to have it all figured out today. You are enough and deserving of love, understanding and care just as you are. We're all here for you, and you truly matter πŸ’– Sending lots of love your way πŸΎπŸ’•

I know you feel a bit lost, it seems like everyone has all the answers and will go places and I don't know why parents compare siblings. It creates conflict.

But you don't need to know your future right now. It might chop and change anyway. Try things and see what makes you smile.

It took me a while to see through all the blankness and confusion but I eventually did and you will too.

You're normal and human and fine as you are. It just might take a while to realise your potential, that's all.
