Mine varies from like 4 to -5, with random flucturations into -7 to -8. I’d say it averages out at like -1.
minus-squareAsafum@feddit.nllinkfedilinkarrow-up2·edit-22 days ago-2, -3 something like that. Grew up poor, got yelled at for using a whole can of tuna for lunch kinda poor. Parents divorced when I was 2 so I never knew what it was like to have 2 people that cared about you in the house. My mother remarried 2 more times and we moved like every 3-4 years so I never developed long friendships, this has continued even as I’m independent throughout my life so I’ve never known stability. Both stepfathers wished I didn’t exist. The first was ok, had his own son with my mom that he treated like you’d expect but completely ignored myself and my older brother. The next guy wouldn’t use my name, it was “idiot” “moron” “jerk off” etc. naturally all that made me Totally The Most Confident Person Ever™©®
