I think that maybe my impatience and critical thinking come from a place of helplessness. I, even with my what I have learned, what many of us have learned, cannot make their pain go away. I can only impart my experiences and hope that maybe something I say can be relatable. If you can relate to any part of my story, maybe you can also relate to what I have learned.

For a long time, I was better. Maybe it was the counseling. Or the meds. Or the cocoon of safety my family provided me.

Whatever it was, it didn’t matter because I was better.
