My blood family shares my Latvian blood. That's the only important similarity.
My friend family shares conflict. All of us have been through the systems and mastered them at the expense of their health. I know 4 who acquired migraines, 1 other who acquired cluster headaches, 43 of whom have developed moderate depression, 33 others with mild depression, and 13 who have acquired an anxiety disorder. None of them have gone unscathed in their journey. These are people who are renowned in the city for their expertise at young ages, some who decided this was their path and willingly took the pains, others who wish they never bothered after they've been through. It's... complicated.
