@giovanadg Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect! It takes bravery to open up and share your story, whoever you are and whatever the story may be. We only have words we put on a page, so we cannot see the tears in someone's eyes when they read our post, or feel their hug as they want to reach out to us in support. For me, getting things out onto paper/screen, or doing something to create the story [painting, poem, drawing, etc.] gets the energy out of my mind and heart, and lessens the burden.

As @mynushooz1 said, you just made a difference. I bet there is someone reading your post, nodding their head because it sounds familiar to them. Will they say something? Maybe. Maybe not. But either way, it's a great thing you did!

You have taken another step in getting yourself healthier, and you have done a lot already. I will be in your cheerleader section, rooting you on, shouting "YAH!" for every step you take. Okay? Now, what are your next plans?

My next plans are growing in work and personal life. Maybe start a family which is something me and my husband have talked about, just want to make sure I’m in the right state of mind and really fix the inner issues to provide my future family with all the love and care and education they need. I really feel responsable for that so, time will tell 😊. So far I have been working on myself to be better and stronger. Thank you for writing 🙏🏻.
