I had a dope conversation with a member of my old youth ministry last night. During that convo we shared good vibes and I also expressed some of the fear/anxiety I'm dealing with during this transition.
One point mentioned to me is that some people are having a difficult time understanding my experience. I have journaling in hopes that one day I will be able to share my experience and help a young individual at the same place I was so many years ago.
I have one request of those who know me however: Reach Out. All of your support matters and it helps keep me from isolating myself.
