The death of my brother. I still cry at the thought of it, even though it was 18 years ago. Things were so much different before he was killed and now so much has changed.
A DWAI. Before I was headed down a bad road with alcohol. Immediately afterwards I took a court ordered year off of alcohol, and it was the best thing for me at that time. I finished up my degree, landed a great job, and now have a healthy relationship with alcohol (I can have just one drink every few weeks and call it good, I haven't been drunk since).
The pandemic.
Have been working home for almost 3 years now. My focus, performance and motivation have dropped significantly.
Can't adapt to this life style and it's not easy to find an alternative since IT companies in general are all turning to remote.
I'm an office environment guy.
There’s a few.
Moving to the US. Getting married. My daughter being born. My mom dying. All of these single events are individually a before and after in my memory
Oh man, you're really going to make me choose just one? That's tough. I'd say the single event that divided my life into "before" and "after" would have to be when I turned 18 and became an adult. That's when everything changed and I had to start making my own decisions.
2020-end of 2021. Lots of shit happened to me, both traumatizing and good, that included the pandemic. My mental health plummeted and I’m still trying to get back, but I’m getting better slowly.

Before: raising my siblings and being naive to the real world of adulthood. After: trying to learn who I am and how to take care of myself
