I hate that everything was perfectly happy and fine with my family and our game, and then my mom innocently pointed out that my teeth were starting to move apart again...which got us into this whole big mess where I ended up arguing with them over my retainer. Because yes, my teeth are going back to how they were before. My retainer may fix that if I wore it every night, but I refuse to. You know why? IT FUCKING HURTS. It's not meant to hurt. It hurts because my teeth are getting messed up again, AKA the problem they should be fixing in the first place. Now we're going to talk to the doctor again and I told my parents I would wear it every night like I should (well, the most I go without it is two days, but again, it HURTS LIKE FUCKING HELL) but I highly doubt it'll make a difference. I might get braces again which I really don't want. I don't want to go through this again just to end up with my teeth, yet again, going back to being the way they were before. It's not my fault that when I swallow, my tongue pushes against my teeth. I can't do anything about that unless I'm actively aware of the way I swallow, which I can't be every single second of the day because I swallow a lot during the day. So yeah, I'm just really upset right now because either my teeth will remain fucked up or we'll have to find a way to fix them and it'll probably be long, expensive, and painful again. I fucking hate my teeth. And I'm like "well in March I'll be 18, so won't it be my choice?" and my parents are annoyed at that because it's like I don't care. I do care, but what the hell am I supposed to do about it if my teeth will remain getting fucked up no matter what?
