Well, thank you @abigail-dantes. I'll just say that I considered my own choices more important than what other people wanted me to be. In my perspective, that is the way I can find true relationships with people which I can sustain. It was indeed about liberation initially, but I did stumble into something much more wonderful: taking care and responsibility of myself. I've started journeying into self-discovery and self-control. High time I do so.

Thank you once again. Your words are kind and inspirational.
