I think that a lot of my issues have to do with wanting to appear a certain way, and therapy allowed me to be more "real" than I sometimes allow myself to be IRL.

Anyway, I feel like there is a hole where therapy used to be in my life. Not even that it helped me so enormously.
I'm a completely different person on the "inside" than the one I have always shown to the world (including my closest relatives.) Therapy, while it lasted, was the one place where I could allow at least the merest portion of that to peek out.
