Keep writing and sharing
Your experiences and your feelings matter..
Sometimes in your gut you "know" something and its difficult to accept it in your mind...other times circumstance and past choices block you...
for folks struggling with GD it is hard to find acceptance and resources and you will be tested... only you benefit and only you suffer from your actions and inactions..
when other people are involved in this remember that they are not you....they cannot and will never internalize what you feel and what you know... so you are gonna have to stay strongand believe in yourself.
I remember as I went through this I was in my 40s. I had tons of life experience and it was still brutal... I recall pleading to my mother ....I recall blurting out that God hates me...
and my mom very calmly said ...no honey, Jesus loves you....that's the whole point!! God doesnt ,make mistakes they say... well you are not a mistake...you GD is not a mistake...you are just like god made you and you are allowed to be yourself....
