no

I kind of dread people celebrating me, usually in part because the times around that celebration are busy and stressful for me so I can do the performative gratitude that people expect when it happens.

Then it devolves into conversations of what is wrong with you (why are you broken) or what is wrong with this (why do you hate me).

Not since my late 20s. But it's nice to have a day to celebrate yourself, we all deserve it, but it can be any day you feel like pampering yourself.

I don't need to celebrate too much, but taking the day off work and going out for dinner somewhere nice is something I like to do.

I like to keep to the same routine when possible. Birthdays and holidays interrupt that. No good. I can't do much for holidays, but since my birthday is supposed to be my day, i can demand this from everyone around me.

No. I won't tell people when my birthday is.

Birthdays are for children and 100 year olds
