when i'm laying in bed, i think back to how my life has been
and i just realize that i missed out on so many things youths do
i missed out on graduation, formals, prom, excitement of going to college and being successful, parties and doing fun things. my closet is full with dresses i never got to wear.
i never got asked out as a teenager
now i have no friends, excitement isn't really part of my life anymore. when i was younger, i was looking forward to my teenage years and how much fun i'd have with my friends. i was naive enough to think i'd have plenty of friends
but nothing happened. i am a shut in and nobody speaks to me. it's too late now.

i missed out on a lot, too!

not just because my MI journey started at a really young age, but because of my upbringing.
i like to think it's never too late to start again and get the experiences you want to have, but who am i kidding?

how are you meant to get back the missing years- and the missing experiences of childhood/ teenage years
