Being an adoptee means I learned some things early on:
-you can really only trust yourself
-blood does matter to family members
-being a secret is normal
-being lied to is normal
-people will weaponize your adoptee status on a dime
-you will never know where you belong

#NAAM
-your parents are not your parents
-your ancestors cannot claim you
-your adoption will always be the reason 4 everything
-you owe people for existing
-you can’t feel your feelings when you need to
-you’ll never have an easy answer to who/where your family is
#BeingAdoptedMeans
-people will always pity/be afraid of you
-you’llalways struggle with your confidence
-you’ll always live in fear of being disowned/unclaimed
-you’ll have a complicated relationship with your kids
-you’ll be treated like an infant by almost all adults forever
