I quit and restarted innumerable times. Too many to count.
I figured I had no credibility with those around me. Talk is cheap, so I decided to just let them see the change as it happened.
After a year, I decided to talk about it more.
Its not really an insult. For those around us, its exhausting to see us getting well, hope the best for us, thinking maybe this is the time they get well, see the light, whatever, and then we smash it all and go right back to square one.
For me, I just focused on me. Forget what everyone else thinks for a while. They'll catch on.
