I Lied
Can you forgive me?
I had said that I would share about my depression and PTSD in hopes of helping others. It turns out that that sentiment isn’t entirely true. There have been a few posts that I have written that upon re-reading are just too personal for me to make public. I’m just not comfortable sharing some things yet.
I still have them saved OR I have published them as “private” where only I can read them. I kept them so that the stories and record of my feelings persist. And perhaps in the future when some time has passed I’ll be comfortable sharing them. But for now they are mine alone.
I Lied, But Isn’t It Understandable?
Hopefully my reluctance to share some things makes sense to everyone. Are you willing to share everything about YOU? Probably not, right? So surely it is understandable that I am reluctant to share some things that are emotionally sensitive and that are negatively stigmatized.
Yes, I lied to you. But you still love me, right?
