abandoned

/əˈband(ə)nd/

adjective

having been deserted or cast off

Feeling as if you are not wanted s not a new feeling for me; feeling abandoned. As a child, I always felt as if there was something off. I did not truly understand it due to me being as young as I was. I started to become more clear when my parents were in the process of getting a divorce. I was around the age of 7 when it became official. Not having your parents under the same roof anymore and having to go to from one house to another was strong for my brother and I. Sleeping in two different beds on different days was even stranger. I felt as if I did not have a true home. I slowly started to fell as if I was being disconnected from everyone around me. Feeling as if I was just a body taking up space.
