Anyone else hate having your birthday overshadowed by a holiday?

[dragoblack]

Every year on my birthday, aside from my mother and grandmother, No one calls, no shows up, no one gives gifts, no one drags me out to celebrate, no one takes time to even hang out for 30 min, never any cake or ice cream. Just me by myself, living another day like any other, exceptmost places are closed because of memorial day. But, any other time of the year, people expect me to do all of that for their birthdays... every birthday is always depressing to the point, i literally have medically reoccurring depression because of it.
Anyone out there going through the same bullshite?

Yeah, my ex's bday was the day after Christmas. He hated it. Never had a birthday party because all the kids were too busy with their family and playing with their new toys and stuff.

My birthday is the day after our national holiday. My birthday is not overshadowed at all. But there is no one to celebrate it. I am happier this way. Because I hate fake birthday celebrations.

Nope mine is Christmas eve

I don't do more than a Scotch, steak and a cigar and expect no extra involvement or parties and gifts

I therefore don't care to celebrate anyone else's

If you're invested in your birthday then yes it's depressing. Throw yourself a party then!

The only problem I see is a 33 y/o whining about their birthday. It's weird tbh.

So have a party not on your birthday. And Memorial Day moves, it’s not near your birthday every year.

I don't have that problem, but I can see why it could bother some people.
