Yes , I certainly wouldn't advocate that path if you have a choice . It's not an easy path and a dangerous one . You could find you struggle to find a reason to live for a while until you can make sense of life or at least your sense to it . One thing I have done over the years is believe I do have a biological family , they may not be alive but they are real . The Irish girl who burnt down a barn and waited for the police to arrest her so she could be transported as a convict and escape the famine . The German man who packed his bags and left his fathers pub in Hamburg to follow the gold rush in a new country . The Wild young man who climbed down 20 metres of chain ladder to save three men struck down by explosive fumes 700 metres underground 100 years ago .. they are all in me , and yours are in you . They stretch back 150000 years maybe . Your family is not only who gave direct birth to you . It took a lot more and a lot longer than that .
P.s. I knew my path was the correct one when I went back a week after leaving to collect a few items . The locks had been changed on the house and all that had been mine had been thrown away . It's no violin session , I don't wish to sound hard done by , but I don't do forgiving , c'est la vie . I have a wonderful life , which I don't believe would have happened without action . Hopefully you don't/won't need to take it . It can be lonely until you find your own tribe .
