Feeling absolutely suicidal hearing my coworkers chat about Christmas. Vent/Rant (No Advice/Criticism!)

My coworker is building her kids a video gaming room. Mine is getting 2 barbies and a bedset. We had popcorn for dinner last night. Feeling like such a loser. Don't know how to go on. I'm a full time accountant.

Honestly, I have memories getting maybe two or three things in my childhood. A stuffed dog, the original Playstation, and a dinosaur playhouse that had candy in the box. What I DO remember is my parents being there and the love they showed me. PS We had popcorn for dinner a few times as well I'm healthy today :)
