I didn’t comprehend until this answer that the OP asked for chapter titles that might go into an autobiography novel, not just descriptions of eras. Beautiful work.

DirigibleProtein,
  1. School
  2. Job
  3. Married
  4. Kids
  5. Retrenched
  6. Cancer
  7. Remission
  8. What now?
BarrelAgedBoredom,

Hobbies? Travel? Construct the revolution?

DirigibleProtein,

Yes, thank you, trying to work out what I can and want to do with the strength and energy left over after chemo.

BarrelAgedBoredom,

Seriously though, is there something you’re actually looking to do once youve got your strength back? Cancer sucks

qooqie,

I read before that you live your life through your 20s and 30s like you usually do and then you’ll get a life changing diagnosis.

So with that in mind I’d say pre diagnosis and post.

someguy3,

I’ve heard an interesting idea that life is broken into 12 year agreements segments. It’s not a bad idea.

indepndnt,

Hmm, interesting, I’ll try it. Here are my chapter titles.

  1. Ignorance is bliss.
  2. Loneliness and anger.
  3. How to ruin your life with one simple marriage.
  4. Growth, healing, and self-discovery.
  5. How I became an ethical billionaire.

Haha, jk about 5, I’m still in chapter 4 and there’s no such thing as an ethical billionaire.

In the closet and out of the closet

Cheesus,

I would probably split it pretty broadly. Pre parents divorce was a great time. Once my parents divorced and changing schools at the worst time really aet me behind socially and I never really found who to be and was generally an unhappy person. Once I went to community college, I learned what I loved and found my intrinsic motivation from within. Post college has been nothing but a success as I continue to be myself, found an awesome wife, bought a house, started a family, and continue an upward trajectory.

Chapter 1: early childhood pre parents divorce (0-9) Chapter 2: childhood to teenage years (10-18) Chapter 3: college, finding myself, and becoming an individual (18-22) Chapter 4: job success, family success, and true happiness (23-32) Chapter 5: starting a family (33+)
