As an adult? Being involuntarily unemployed at the beginning of my career. Circa 2001. Made about 10 phone calls a day for two months to land a crap job that paid the bills. Worst part? No decent marijuana around.

As a child? Being in love. Circa 15 y/o. No male role models in my life, neglectful home. A recipe for disaster.

Thankfully, I figured all that shit out. IMHO Took longer than it should have (given an optimal setup and looking at my peers), but we all have to play the cards we're dealt.
