I was in a deep depression and my ex would berate me every time I tried to express my feelings about turning 40. Pretty much hated myself tbh.

@TessDun it is when you feel stuck in your life and can’t see a way out. And it’s even worse when you are made to feel stupid about feeling that getting older is hard by the person who is supposed to be a source of support.

@summersong Yes I feel you. Did you break up with him at that time? I hope you are in peaceful state now.

@TessDun in a much better place now though I should’ve left him earlier.
