What was a big catalyst in your life that made it change?

@Starcrossed that is awful

@Cosmicmicrowave yes but I'm stronger now because of it.
I realized that great love was incredibly toxic to me as was the job I lost.
I lost a few good colleague friends too but still keep in touch with the one I cared about the most.
I got a better similar role doing only the parts of my old job that I enjoyed, a pay raise and a title promotion.
I got myself a good therapist to help deal with my losses and have since worked on some childhood trauma in a way no therapist helped me before.

While 2021 was a tough, the self growth I've gone through since then has been leaps and bounds.

@Starcrossed I see well I am glad you are thriving I myself have had a hard life

@Cosmicmicrowave I hope you find your strength and have people in your life who help support your growth and wellbeing.

@Starcrossed Thank you, I do have someone who supports me that is my girlfriend, I have always survived, but with her I will thrive
woah that was poetic

@Starcrossed ooh my god that must have been a big blow!

@popmol it was.

@Starcrossed have you grown stronger?

@popmol so so much! Actively working to improve my life which I wasn't doing before.

@Starcrossed awesome :) i have a similar thing but less important
