For Me This Is Tremendous!

[MT Johnny]

See me thread yesterday - it is a follow up of sorts - but merits a quick thread of its own.

I literally "came out" about virtually the entire frickin mess to a sibling via lengthy text messages - the ptsd, therapy, Meds, the way it all profoundly f'ed up my life. And even the possibility of falling somewhere on the bipolar spectrum.

It went better than expected. Not perfect but I think sibling will let me live.

Johnny. Really.truly.brave. I hope you are taking time to be proud of yourself. Well done.

That's wonderful @MT Johnny. I hope it presents an opportunity to bring your sibling to a place where a better relationship for the two of you might be possible.

That is awesome @MT Johnny I'm so proud of you. It's never easy but when you get a reaction that isn't negative helps a lot

I would've put this on the 'accomplishments' board, because you really accomplished something big- you reached out, spoke openly to your sibling and were honest with them. That is tremendous, and very awesome. Nicely done!
