Yes! Others don't really understand how good it feels to actually feel less alone. Especially this part.
"Other people don't get the sensitivity. What its like to go without validation your whole life. The abuse. Actually being abandoned. People with this disorder HAVE experienced traumatic abandonment in some form. So it isn't all in our heads and I get so angry when people say it is in our head. People say that. "Oh, that's not really abandonment..." Its like yes. Yes it is. Maybe to them it wouldn't be, but everyone experiences things differently. I get so angry over this though. So many can't fathom what I went through, and what I go through on a daily basis. "

I related with that so hard that I teared up to be honest. Because others *don't* understand how it feels. They *don't* understand how certain things make us feel. They kind of do, but I think it's life explaining the scent of lavender, or the colour purple. They might have a vague idea, but they don't really understand.
