She was being honest,and somehow was brought back to "don't feel" like many of us ACOA's were told as children. That really s***ks,
It sure does and I really hope and pray that Never will know it is truly okay to feel and to disregard comments that are made without knowledge of the person or situation or understanding of how devastating they can be. I know it was not meant to wound, and truly appreciate the apologies to Never, but sometimes words are more painful than physical blows, especially when one is facing severe depression. I hate that this happened but it reminds me that my words too can wound and I must think first and act (or not act) , not react.
Prayers and hugs for Corrine. I hope you are feeling better my friend.
