What did you find out about yourself [View all]

years later that made you feel you belong. I realized I am partially dyslexic. I‘m good at interconnected thinking. I think in 3D. I was depressed in my late teens. All typical of dyslexics. I can clearly remember struggling to communicate with people. And it didn‘t happen. No connection. I needed time and solitude to learn how to think for myself, instead of just buying into the narrative of a friend who dominated me. Depression happened again when I was 25. Again for a very good reason(harassment). So those mysteries are solved. And I know how to stear away from trouble. And I feel safe. And I‘m very hopeful.
