Has a car accident. It ruined my plans of joining the military and acquiring independence from my folks (26 years old now). I was hoping it would toughen me up as well as give me opportunities that I wouldn’t have back home. If someone wants to lay hands on me there’s not much I can do. Standing up for myself isn’t something I want to do anymore. Women? Forget about it. Unfortunately, I fucked my leg and skull up so that’s not a possibility for me anymore. It’s very demoralizing for me on a daily basis. I feel like whatever sliver of fire/energy I had is just gone and I don’t know how to get it back, if I can. submitted by /u/Shitty-welder
