my HS graduation was on a Saturday, and my mom's attempt was the following Monday. so I guess this has that beat for awful.
chronic depression really distorts your view of things. my mom honestly didn't think it would taint my graduation or change my plans. sort of, like she was already gone from my life, so she was just trying to wrap things up?
unsurprisingly, even though she wasn't successful, she still managed to screw me and my younger siblings up for a fair bit. it's been 20+ years, and only one of us still is in contact with her.
Man I hope you guys are doing better.
mostly, yeah! it was a very dysfunctional childhood, but we're all mostly functional adults.
