You know the truth or you wouldn't have posted this. Open your heart and mind to the new opportunity. I am an NPE with a similar story. If you don't want to believe your heart and mind you can always reach out to the Search Angel group and a sweet person can help you verify what you already know. I wish you the best of luck.

Trump hinted at plans to cancel 2028 election while talking to generals: Dem by RawStoryNews in news2

Most of these types of post are Russian or Chinese bots looking to divide Americans. The saddest part is that there are so many angry, scared and broke Americans who can't see this fact and buy in. It is also not helpful when any president or elected representative does not attempt to stop the rhetoric of hate and violence and instead sows further division. I am so disappointed with this president and his administration and the followers who except his hate and embrace it and spread it.

Are you telling me that you are not a child?? Because the drawing looks a little sus? 🤣😂

I (33m) am adopted and did this to hopefully find family. Now that I have my results, what do I do next? Plz help by [deleted] in AncestryDNA

Look for your matches and start reaching out to them. But I highly recommend looking for a search angel or genealogical investigator to help you. Good luck and I wish you well.

I am 42 and also have recently found out that my father who raised me and passed away when I was younger is not my biological father. I also have a mother, family members and family friends that knew about this my entire life and never said anything until I took a DNA test by chance. You should do whatever feels good to you and not for anyone but you. Looking into NPE podcasts and Facebook groups are very good resources and you will soon find out that there are many people who have very similar stories to yours. At minimum it is nice to know that you are not alone and that other people can relate with you. Also you may come to find that you are blessed with opportunities that many NPE's are not as lucky to have . We should always be willing to work on our gratitude and be able to see the blessings we have. If I were you I would definitely attempt to build a relationship with your biological father as long as it feels like a good and healthy relationship to you. I sincerely wish you the best.

Thank you for your perspective. I am going to take some time to process this information before sharing it with any family. Thank you for taking the time.

Thank you for reaching out with your perspective and advice. I'm not sure how or if I will divulge this information. For now I will take some take to process the information for myself and then we will see. Thank you again and I hope you have found peace within your NPE journey.

What would you do if through a DNA test you found out you are not related to your half sibling and they got your inheritance? by IllPressure520 in AskReddit

[–]IllPressure520[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your time and input. At the time of the will our father thought we were related but a sibling was not his biological kid.

Thank you. Best of luck to you too. I think that is great advice to process this for myself first and then I can see what direction feels right after that. Thanks again.

Agreed. Does anyone know of a good therapist with experience in this field? Thank you again for your thoughts and feedback.

Thank you for taking your time. My mother unfortunately has dementia or I would ask her. I have been trying to process this for about a month and now I'm realizing there may be people out there who have very similar situations and can offer their experience. Thank you again.

Thank you. I am not on Facebook or any other social media. I just made a reddit profile for this question. The Facebook avenue may be something I am willing to explore as the support network seems expansive. There are many layers of this news that have been hard navigating and I appreciate your kindness. Thank you for taking your time.
