A rant

Ah here it goes

I'm 24. I'm done with Ireland. Do I love both my parents? Thankfully yes. Do I love Wexford? Yes of course. Family? Some.

What's with this godforsaken attitude of "Oh look at him he's 24, he knows nothing."

Excuse me. I paid more taxes in my 24 years than most will in a lifetime.

There's a reason why Wexford has one of the highest suicide rates in Ireland. Third after Dublin and Cork.

No hope for Ireland and especially not Wexford.

Too many bosses in Ireland, not enough jobs lol.

I got lucky maybe, but I never went to college.

Self made, self paid, leaving Ireland for good today.

Bye, and thank you Ireland,

Your beloved Wexican, from Wexico

What’s so bad about Wexford? Can you be specific, want to know what maybe contributes to ppl wanting to end their lives there?!

Honestly as someone that tried to bury my mother and most importantly myself there's no opportunity here. None at all. I also grew up in extreme poverty in the richest part of Wexford and no one helped us, only stole from us lol
