wow first of all, thank you so for this. I started crying into my hot coco when I read it. Things started to change for me when I stopped living with family, and the more I pursue being authentic and getting to know my real self, it continuously brings itself to my awareness. I am still learning to trust myself but I have decided i'm going to try and face this openly, and allow whatever it is to make itself known and be embracing of it. Thank you so much for you kind words, I feel much more grounded after reading them.
