Lmao I feel this. I’m Mexican and I have major depressive disorder and I knew since I started puberty there was something wrong and when I told my mom and dad I wanted to kill my self, my dad started yelling that he’d give me a reason to kill myself, threw a terracotta pot at me and proceeded to beat me HAHAHAHA I can’t wait to have kids and treat them the way I should have been treated
