My friends and my sister have been supportive. So I’m going to bring it up to my therapist. I think it may be relevant to some of the early onset of mental health issues I had, some of my early depressive episodes when I was 9-12 years old and my
at 14. I had a lot of self hatred.
I hope my therapist doesn’t think I’m stupid for bringing it up.

Of course she won't think you're stupid for bringing it up, Birdie! That is exactly why you're in therapy, to work through overwhelming pain.
If you want to, let us know how it goes when you talk with your t about that very hard time when you were so young.
