Oh, you make sense, BC.
Scary? Yes. But full of possibility.
Possibility for being more 'right-sized' (love that word and concept).
My experience was one of very slowly understanding and seeing and believing and knowing I wasn't actually always victimized the way I had been sure I had been victimized and misunderstood all my life.
Which was a relief, actually.
My perceptions and perspective had been waaayyy off while drinking all those years.
