(((((((((muffled)))))))))
I'm sorry that you are feeling so troubled right now about what you have been posting. You have shared a lot of yourself lately, very personal and complex things. You have even taken the risk to share how aspects of your experience felt different than that of others. Talk about doubling the posters remorse anxiety!
When I read your posts, including all of the ones in recent days, I see you being respectful, helpful, open, caring, sensitive, smart, and insightful.
It feels to me like you are afraid that you said something wrong, so you are turning on yourself and beating yourself up because you feel so bad. (I recognize this feeling in myself - where does it come from?) I see in you nothing but the best intentions. I so appreciate that you (and all the rest of babblers) continue to put yourself out there. We are all different, and it is so valuable to hear from everyone. Shared views are valuable in that they help us to feel so not alone. New or different viewpoints give us an opportunity to self-examine and grow in a new way, even if it is only to confirm that we are different. I see nothing disrespectful or hurtful in this. I've seen you treat others here with care and respect. You clearly have done a lot of self examination and have much to share.
I so clearly see the good, caring, and compassion in you. I very much wish that you could hold onto this part of yourself too.
