Does anyone else remember a lot from when they were a baby/toddler?

I feel like I see a lot of people talking about how they remember when they “suddenly gained consciousness” as an infant, but honestly I can’t quite recall the first time I did. I was conscious at least since the age of 3- if not younger- and I remember a lot from that age. Just wondering if I’m not alone on this?

I can’t do this anymore

My mental health is so bad I can’t handle being alone or in silence. All my friends live 40-50 minutes away from me and I got 2 tickets and my fucking car taken away from me. I deserve the punishment I guess cuz it’s my own fault for getting tickets but it’s genuinely so bad on my mental health that I can’t see those people. I get so suicidal when I’m alone cuz I have all that damn time to think abt everything. I feel so secluded and alone. Anytime I would open up I would be told abt how my life is so good and I shouldn’t feel like this and it’s so fucking annoying. Genuinely if I told them everything that went on in my head I’d probably be put somewhere. The only reason I don’t end it is bc ppl depend on me and I can’t bring myself to let them be alone. I will suffer if it means keeping others happy.
My mind’s all over the place and I can’t keep a coherent thought rn sorry

I’m not pretty enough.

HI! I’m 17f and I wanna be a performer so so bad. I’m obsessed w dancing and it’s like my one passion. I’d love love love to be a music artist as well but I lack creativity. I’m mostly scared cuz i feel like im not good/talented enough nor pretty enough.

I honestly just need motivation and some people to talk to about this cuz im lowk embarrassed

Is it normal to wish you were the opposite gender?

I’m 17f and I’ve had this reoccurring thought since I was younger of wishing I was born a guy. I’m unsure what exactly this thought really is. I think I like being a girl but again, I’m unsure. I really enjoy being perceived as more “masculine” for a lack of better words.

I have 2 older brothers and I always wanted to be cool like them and fit in yk so I believe it stems from that but still.. I’m wondering if I have a bigger issue at hand here.

Edit

I’m prolly gonna edit this a lot cuz I’m trying to really get my thoughts together.. also this is getting more interaction than I intended so I’m gonna add more context.

I always felt this jealousy of my brother. Like genuinely wishing I WAS him.

I was also raised similar to how my brothers were-be tough, don’t cry, etc etc so I know that kind of plays into why I feel like this.

W my girlfriends I usually play as the more protective and almost boyfriend-like role. I don’t like them like that, I just feel more comfortable being that role, if that means anything.
