I have no idea if either of you two nonnies will be back to see this or not, but holy shit, kids, you just made me cry (in a really, really good way, don't worry.) Thank you, nonnies. You're pretty awesome too, whoever you are.
Hi there! I don't even have a livejournal and have only come to your journal a few times for the fic (via delicious), but I am really, really glad I got to see this post.
Basically, it makes me want to be your best friend.
I want you to know that this level of honesty and clarity is really inspiring. This sort of self-evaluation is something that takes a long time to learn. I want you to know that YOU are inspiring for sharing this and for talking about things that a lot of people won't talk about. I really want you to know that you're not "crazy" (i know this is maybe a joking way of saying it, but still), what you are is human. I've been there (maybe I still am there??) and while my experiences are both different and the same from yours I want to say thank you. Thank you for standing up with something that, by its nature, makes you want to lay down and cry. I wish I could sit and talk with you for awhile about this. :)

No kidding. God, a decade ago I'd just freaking shut down if someone suggested I think about why I'm feeling what I'm feeling. It's better now, much, but like I said -- it took a decade.
And thank you for reading and commenting. It means a lot to me that people are coming around and talking about this stuff with me.
Thank you so much for posting stuff. Honestly, it's comforting to know feeling those things and just wanting your life to make sense isn't just me. Sometimes I look around and no one seems to ever question anything. It's really amazing to read your posts. You have such a way with words, you make everything sound natural and insightful. I'm a bit of a mess at expressing what I feel right now, but thank you, this made my day.
Completely disagreeing here. You are dealing with so much right now, and you're doing it all amazingly well. I have no idea whether or not I could cope with what you're coping with. You're a fucking rockstar. Don't sell yourself short.
