Karawynn, I VERY MUCH value your input — please don’t stop! I don’t feel judged at all by your catching my typos, I’m just grateful. I hear what you mean, though — I didn’t grow up with anything like the trauma you did, but there are still sensitivities, and it still feels awful to feel accused or judged. What I’m referring to when I talk about that are the (thankfully very occasional) comments I get along the lines of “Your lived experiences are wrong, here are studies showing why…” :/ Um, thanks dude, I’ll get right on living that alternate reality then, so glad you came along and pointed that out!
