Blindsided but finding my way (3)

[Ahoy]

Sometimes telling people puts you right back in that difficult emotional place. I find that when I have to tell someone new, I have a hard time and am emotional and sad for a while afterwards. Then, with a bit of time, I feel stronger again. It's good to open up and share what you're going through, even though it is hard, because you will be widening your circle of friends who care (and can help, as you noted). Stay strong!
