I'm turning 25 in a couple months; everyone in my age group is always talking about baby fever and whatnot, but I've literally never felt this lol...like, kids are sooo adorable and precious but realistically speaking, I don't think I'm cut out to be a mom...?

Like, not only do I see the work others put in when raising their children, but with my mental health history (ASD, ADHD, OCD) and all the shootings happening lately, it just seems like a recipe for disaster. I can be such a neurotic mess...that, and I greatly value sleep lol; it's how my meds continue working as well as I need them to.

I only feel uncomfortable speaking on this as I know how many are quick to consider people like me as 'selfish' for having even such a mindset. I don't want my children dealing with the same developmental issues that I'm still learning to manage myself 😂
