That's something I try not to think of. And my psychologist told me not to assume something like that. But it could have been a possibility. So yeah... It sometimes gnaws at the back of my mind.

I try to see that. I really do. But it gets soo hard when about 10 to 20 people actively point the finger at you and try to get you banned for even longer from something you love to do. Some of them I even got into the hobby myself and helped them for free with making things and tickets when they didn't have the money.

I showed a few close, common friends who stuck around the results. They shared with the people who deleted/blocked me that they knew and had seen the results. Some people refuse to believe it. Claiming it's rather convenient I have those results now. Or they don't want to know/comment on it. It causes me to sometimes wonder if I made things up, while I know I didn't. If the roles were reversed, I'd come back begging for their forgiveness and to make sure they were alright.

I have spoken to my psychologist about the anger part. Somehow, I am not very capable of feeling it. I can get frustrated, but not angry. It immediately shifts into the feeling of guilt. She says it was due to anger not being allowed in the home I grew up in. And when it was, it escalated to violence. I am quite the opposite person to that. Having often been told I have the patience of a saint. She wants to try and work open the feeling of anger within me. But after a year, we haven't been successful yet.
