I am worried that being the mother of a disabled child is becoming my whole identity in a bad way. I don’t recognize myself anymore.

I guess thankfully my world is very small and I barely go anywhere so not sure if anyone has picked up on it yet.

You are supposed to travel for yourself, not for bragging rights, but travel has somehow turned into a bragging rights thing, which is shameful.


Just last week I had some lady rail off a list of continents, countries, and cities she had traveled to. No insights, no stories…I guess the list was supposed to be the interesting part?

Rich people who NEED you to know how poor they were growing up and bring it up constantly

I come from a poor and deeply dysfunctional family and am relatively successful. DH knows and a very close friend. No one else needs to know about my messed up family.

Any niche sport/workout people. The Orange Theory people, the Pure Barre people, the "aerialists" (lady you're 45 and pay someone a few hundred dollars a week to show you how do do a half split on aerial fabric, you are not an aerialist), and of course, the original workout cult: Spin Cycle people.


You can add all the niche diet/cleanse people. If you fast for 23/24 hours and only eat raw macrobiotic food, for example.
