I M Not Whining Im Stating Facts

I have had a really difficult time in life, and I've always been afraid to voice it for fear of seeming like a whiny baby. But I vent on SW so here goes anyway.

I grew up with the odds stacked against me. I came from a poor broken home full of domestic violence, drugs, and toxic parenting. I was determined to not let the situation I was born into determine the rest of my life. So I moved out at 18 and tried for years to elevate myself out of my circumstances with education, networking, and various job endeavors, but every single time I would get a little ahead, something beyond my control would shatter everything and I would be left holding the pieces and having to start all over.

I'm 39 and once again, my life is at rock bottom and I am facing the harsh reality of starting over completely from the bottom. I'm so fucking sick of it. I just want to start being my own boss instead of being a dancing monkey for some corporation who sees me as disposable. I have no idea what to do.
