Soon it will be my birthday, a day of celebration and appreciation of my existence, my one special day of the year…
…or not. Along with my birthday is the 5-year anniversary of my dad’s suicide  . When I was talking to my mom, she couldn’t even remember my birthday was coming, all she could think about was my dad’s suicide  . Kind of makes me feel sad that my birthday, supposedly my special day of the year, will forever be marred by my dad’s suicide. People won’t remember my birthday, only his death . Makes me feel loved and important (no, it doesn't). No response is necessary. Just felt like expressing this. |

Hey hi there.. I'm new here. I'm sorry ur feeling unloved and unimportant.
U are important and special even if no one remembers ur birthday. Maybe in time ur mom will feel less grievance and more accepting of her loss and appreciate u more. Happy birthday in advance

It's still your birthday no matter what else happened. You're still here. That's most important.
Happy birthday! |

Happy Birthday (soon)......
This may seem ridiculous and probably you have thought of it, but you could celebrate on a different day, or week, or even month....? I would. |

Happy birthday anyways.
My birthday used to always be a really hard time for me too (but for various other reasons). I dreaded the day and hated the painful feelings it always dug up. But one of the many things that therapy has taught me is that you don't have to idealize dates. You are alive...now...and you don't need a certain day of the year to celebrate that.
