Hi ADeepSandbox

Well it sounds like you have every right to feel REALLY proud of yourself!!
And MASSIVE kudos to you on making it so far and holding onto/being true to yourself through such a difficult journey!!!
To make it through and still come out caring, trying, feeling kindness towards others, to still have positivity can be really tough when you're faced with such "challenges", so RESPECT!!!

As for the self-esteem and saying "No" to people..........well you know that can be worked on .........and it's good that you're with us because you could maybe give us the privilege of supporting you working on that...........

But lastly..........thankyou for such an inspirational thread ADeepSandbox
