I think that sharing your personal struggles with people that have not walked in your shoes is not a good thing to do. Most people have good intentions and may show a false sense of empathy and concern for those of us who are suffering.
But u must understand that many people are carrying a lot of baggage and for the weaker ones it becomes too much if they have to stop and think about how they can sincerely relate to your situation.
I suggest that u hang in there..... u made it this far....... I do beleive in a higher power..... and if u r willing to travel just half way in your journey HE
will carry u the rest of the way.
I wish u all the best in your journey...
Regards,
"almostthere"
