7. Infertility

I couldn't have a child when I wanted to. I can tell you that trying to conceive and not being able to was only third in emotional misery to losing my mother at 13 and being raped at 20. It's utter agony.

I ended up not having children at all, which wasn't the end of the world. Being sterile is way easier than being infertile. I hope I'm explaining that well enough for people to understand.
