I'm so sorry. As a former GS leader, I had a member whose parents forbade her attendance for whatever perceived slight she committed. I wanted so much to help her, as I'm sure your friend's mother wanted for you, and still feel the pain of being unable to do so, forty years later. I hope your journaling helps you process, and I also hope that you know you are not alone. You have created a very powerful page.

Thank you so much!! I'm finally starting to heal (late 40's, 53 now) I finally feel like im getting someplace mentally and gosh that's refreshing!!

What part of FL are you in? I'm near Orlando if you would ever want to go on a nature hike, dm me I'd be up for it! (a short one or a paved one, disability) anyway, thank you so much!!!

So sorry that you went thru all this pain growing up. Hope that you have gotten help to recover. The fact that you could put all this down in writing is a indication that you are surviving and learning to live the good life. I too dealt with a troublesome upbringing and still coping with it many years later in my 80's. Stay strong. You are loved.
