Your desire to find your voice, that alone speaks volumes of your courage... Its hard to not let people get to you, especially on a subject so intensely pesonal and traumatic, but I urge you to try and remember this: They dont know you, they weren't there. They didnt see your wounds or hear your tears fall. They didnt see you scrounge around trying to gather all the pieces off the floor. Most importantly:they DONT matter, YOU DO! DONT allow them to invalidate your suffering 1 bit!
