Is it normal that nothing in my life seems to work out?
It feels like every time I try to do something good for myself in life, it never works out. Ever since I was little, I wanted to join different activities, like ballet. But my parents couldn't afford the classes, so I never took them. In middle school, I finally found a good group of friends, until we all separated in high school and people turned out to be backstabbers. In high school, I tried my best to get good grades and I always give my 100%, but nothing seemed to give.
I remember in high school I was on the newspaper staff for three years when I decided to run for a position. Being an active member, I thought I would definitely get it. Apparently not, 'cause the next thing I know some slacker that is always late got the position instead and did a horrible job.
Why can't things just work out for me once in a while? I always give my best and end up getting another shi**y experience in return. I'm a good person, I don't do crazy things, I'm polite, respect others, and I try to keep a positive attitude. Yet, it seems like the world hates me. What did I do that was so wrong that I can't achieve anything in my life? I feel like I deserve something for making it through this dumba** life I never asked for.
is it normal to feel like this? Do you ever feel like this?
