Sorry that you feel this way about birthdays. For me, my birthdays were always joyful. I am an adoptee and, funny story, after my parents a loooong time ago ( can't remember the age exactly) told me i was adopted, i kind of "placed it in a box" and kind of forgot about it, almost as if it was someone else they were talking about.

But i DO wonder on every january 27th if my birthmom thinks even a tiny bit or ever so briefly about me. Somehow i hope she does. There are things we can't control in this life, but what matter is what we CAN do about it, think of people, places we love and that are loved. Sometimes its not about what you DON'T have, its what you DO. Its not easy, and i'm the first one to admit it, but it goes a long way in finding peace on that day at least.

Keep your chin up.
Cheers
