Discomfort is a part of the process. - Nedra Glover Tawwab

The most important question you need to answer is What do you want for your life? Bear in mind that what you want might not currently exist in your family.

We can't stop others from neglecting us, but we can stop ignoring ourselves.

Honesty isn’t betrayal; it’s courage. Stop sugarcoating your experiences and allow the truth to free you. People often misrepresent their relationships and experiences because they’re too afraid to admit what’s true. But denial will keep you from breaking free from your past.
