I Have Gigantomastia

I wish there were answers... but there never are any. Being brave is scary because it almost never works out

I think you can just about apply that line of thinking to life in general.

Living with this isn't like life in general. Try to imagine having to be brave anytime you do anything you take for granted because you don't know if you'll be treated like you're being inappropriate. Not because of anything you do but just because how your body is and you can't do anything about that. Or that you'll be mocked or treated like an object because of how you are. It's really scary.
It's not that bad for me yet but I'm scared it's getting there. That's scary too, knowing your body's turned against you and it's slowly imprisoning you.

@doodlebug2013 I’d never undermine what a person goes through but I’d say most people have some form of insecurity that at one point or another can cripple them. Every circumstance and how the individual handles it will be different. It’s only the individual’s decision to decide how severe their own circumstance is.

@doodlebug2013 A lot of this can be applied to those of us on the Autism Spectrum as well. (sighs)

@doodlebug2013 Sounds like a better support network and a more accepting community to live in are needed. :/
