Stay at home... easy to do since I was like 17.

I don't even touch the mail, literally just hid in a room xD

Then I got suicidal and got a bit carless about covid since I really feel like dying... so I got covid... and I thought my mom would care about me... but then she blamed me for "infecting the family" 🫠 Average Asian parenting... It's fine, I got used to it...

Probably the final thing that triggered the start of my depression.

Thanks, CCP.

That shit caused so much Anti Asian hatecrimes...

I basically just browse the internet all day...

The only reason I even got infected is because mom wanted me to work for two months in summer 2021 before school started, this time in person, again, so I got infected at work...

so yea, my entire family had to stay home and quarrantine because of covid

My my mom blames me for getting infected because she wanted me to work a job during covid... how does that make sense?

But I didn't die, that's the closest to a "suicide attempt" I've tried, don't have the balls to actually jump from a bridge lol

Older, more responsibilities...

Is that "better"?

My parents really make me wanna hate my own race sometimes

I have a negative association with Cantinese because of all the truama...

I'm not sure I even wanna teach my future children my language, I kinda just wanna forget it.

This way I create more "distance" between us, so my mom cannot go to my kids and try to manipulate them because of language barrier that will make it harder.

Idk I'm just thinking out loud
