Oh, do I know this feeling. I can sooo relate. My whole life was like that. One bad thing after another...

but I kept fighting and pushing through it all, believing in myself the whole time that I personally could overcome all the massive challenges that kept coming my way.

And trust me, it really was one thing after another after another, for years. So I can relate to the feeling you describe.

I finally caught a break in life, and it did happen, whereby things started to turn around and change. BUT it took fighting through. It took not giving up -- and mostly, not giving up on myself.

Anyways, I am just sayin'... things CAN change in life. But I understand your sentiments completely.
