Wow. Powerful. I felt seen simply because you shared. The fog will come again and possibly again. But you will finally begin to realize you never truly needed a path.

Wow! This gave me goosebumps (and made me cry a little) because I see so much of myself and my journey in it, right down to the supportive partner.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for writing this how much moreI could have achieved, but I see now that a lot of it is grief at the lack of support and understanding growing up. I'd chalked the lack of support to "lack of knowledge" and "it was a different time", both of which are true. But a narcissistic parent was definitely in the mix.

Thanks for reading Sapna - it’s brutal, heartbreaking and confusing all at the same time.
