Even if was out loud to all my Facebook , family ,friends ,co-workers ,acquaintances it was life changing.
The outpouring of support still brings a tear to my eye.
I even managed to help someone else come to the realization of their issues ,and that was the most amazing part for me, that not only did I help myself but someone else as well.

The struggles for me are daily but I am in a much better place today than I was then. Hearing some of your stories helps

You are never alone
This might sound silly, but seeing posts like this and the story in OP is so huge for someone like me as well. I can't relate to these experiences, and having nothing to compare it too can make it hard to wrap your head around things like this, so hearing someone break down what they're going through is incredibly important to help me understand it
