Thanks to a great therapist, I’ve been working on processing some of the root causes of #dissociativeamnesia in my past, specifically childhood. This has pushed me to explore, in small doses, things that are tied to these periods and recently led to a deep dive on FB

Discovering this post, I expected my typical reaction to bringing up my past which is usually a very apathetic “meh” and quickly moving on. Instead, I actually had a bit of chuckle for a few reasons. I’m very happy at this response because it means I’m starting to process…
these moments in a healthier way. Aside from finding it humorous that I’m someone’s example of a good boy gone bad, I also found the subtle story told here very interesting. The third picture of me was chosen deliberately: photos I share of me on my birthdays are always of me…

I was calm in the midst of it all. Started my ARVs 2months after

Over the course of five years, I've had a range of experiences. There were people who loved me no matter what and for that, I'm grateful. There were people I had to educate and I'm thankful that they learnt one or two things.

There were some that just didn't get the gist. Some would ghost immediately I told them. Some would come with crazy excuses. Some tried to shame/blackmail me..lol.
In all, I'm thankful for life. For growth. For friends. For support systems.

I got to explain #GayPanic and #UselessLesbian to my pysch today 😂
These are terms I just learned (over the last few months myself) that described succinctly, what the heck is going on with my brain.

“Sweet mother, I cannot weave –
slender Aphrodite has overcome me
with longing for a girl.” –Sappho
To everyone, we've almost all been in this feeling. (i cannot speak for Ace)
Someone we see or meet, and their presence just #dazzles us into #malfunction (however brief)
