Hi Fuzzy
With you having been through so much of the stuff you've been through, and stuff you're going through now,
still, it's
not at all surprising if you haven't done what you otherwise
could have done..........so
zero "beating yourself up" on that, hey??!!
But if you're talking about "outsider" views on "achievements" and "potential"............well we/you know that "achievement" can be so subjective, right??!!
Well you might already remember my view on that

Just because someone hasn't e.g. passed x exam, got x job, got x promotion, thrown x amount of parties........that does
not in my eyes make them any less worthy as a person..........and I'd say that there can be so many more worthwhile things about a person than those things and that's all about who they are as a person, deep down inside

Well, I'll stop there.........you know my views on that from past posts anyway
And do you want to talk more about hurting people??
