        Pretty sure he was her child. He just felt so unloved he’d convinced himself he couldn’t be.

        Wow. This was heavy😢. Hope he finds his breakthrough. ♥️♥️♥️ And I’m so proud of him for coming to the realization that love is what should be passed on instead of more pain. I think he’ll make a great father.

        Going through extremely similar emotions and thoughts and experiences and you are not alone in this feeling. We got this together. Seriously.

        I think there are an awful lot of people walking around with this kind of trauma and shame. I'm grateful he shared and hope he can find someone to continue to talk to.
