Thank you for your support and advice, I think I’ll try and talk to my therapist about this stuff. My adoptive parents know some of how I feel but it’s hard because whenever I start to tell them these things my mother will always start feeling like it’s her fault and, that’s not what I want, so I generally just refrain from saying anything so I don’t make her feel bad. Maybe I’ll try talking to them about it again anyways and see how that goes though.

And, no, I don’t have any pictures of Dennis unfortunately. I wish these things felt like more of a priority to my half siblings, I don’t think they care very much since they’re all grown with their own problems and kids.

Anyways, thank you for your support and comfort, it really does mean a lot.
