Is Birthday depression a thing?

With my birthday approaching, I just can’t help but talk about this. Yes, Birthday depression is a thing.   The feeling is not pleasant I must say,  It entails  feeling lonelier on a day you are meant to feel loved, cherished and appreciated ,   e specially when it appears  as t he only day you get noticed , feeling like a burden to your friends and family, feeling sad, underachieved, less enthusiastic as the days roll by, feeling anxious beforehand and on the day itself. Yes, that is birthday depression. It is certainly not a good feeling, honestly. Over the last decade, I think I have only really felt that birthday vibe twice and that was 2020 and 2021. It was like the first time I felt loved by a lot of persons and it felt so genuine, the thoughtful gifts I got, the heartfelt messages, calls and everything.  I honestly didn’t want the day to come to an end.    So why do birthdays come with so much anxiety/depression?   • Too much attention...
