I relate that to "not having a voice." No one heard me when I was a child when I needed help or when I wanted the abuse to stop. I learned to yell to make myself heard. Later, I found out that yelling turns people off or they tune you out but worse yet, you scare some people off.

I still have some problems with that. Maybe I'm just a naturally loud person. IDK. My husband and my kids tell me I don't need to shout.

Here, it takes a lot of editing to get rid of the capitals and bold type. I'm learning, though. My soul sister capitalizes the first letter of a word she wants to accentuate. I do it with her when I write her, but I don't do it here.

It's awful not having a voice!
