For me, 2009 was the best year of my life. Though it wasn't perfect, it was the year that I realized what I wanted to do in life, I was more successful in college and extracurricular activities than I thought I'd ever be, I was doing many new things, I had some great friends, and unlike several years before and several years after, I finally started talking to my dad regularly again after not doing so for 6 years, and I had no depression. I look at that year fondly and I really miss how I was back then - not in a clinging to the past kind of way, but I legitimately like and miss the person I was back then.

2014 had nothing good going for it and the events of that year still affect me heavily today. Between people close to me committing or attempting suicide, my confidence being destroyed, losing friends, getting involved in job scams, being threatened with physical violence multiple times while facing depression with thoughts of suicide, being away from family while all the above was happening, being unemployed for months before getting a shitty job, my dad's marriage failing, and many other things, I can't think of a year that broke me as much as 2014 did - I'm still trying to get over it.
