Then I went through a horrible few years and developed PTSD. One of the things that keeps me going is knowing I can be just like I was when I was 8, before I had to worry about what my parents thought of me, before I tried rejecting who I was, and before I went through hell and back again. If you can get to that point, so can I. Thank you.icanflyindreamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13811478581655518568noreply@blogger.com
