I don't like talking about my trials, but I'm going to anyway. I've been bullied a lot, and as an adult it's gotten worse because I refuse to conform. I question everything and everyone, and people call me an over thinker.

The things I say are often viewed negatively despite my intent. I truly only want everyone to be happy, even though I have an unusual way of showing it. But sometimes my own need for survival through true expression outweighs everyone else's feelings. I hope you'll remember that.

This thread is necessary in my process of overcoming my inner demons, despite my desire to just let it go. I am trying to heal myself, I am not harboring hatred. But I am very, very disappointed in each and every one of the people who bullied me.

My most difficult trial was being bullied by admins of the Starset Messengers group over the last several years. And I am also aware that I am not the only individual who was targeted.
