A sensitively written piece my dear. I very much agree with your sentiments. I don't use social media so I cannot like but I hope those that do, do support you in that way.

It reminds me of this amusing maxim:

Before you diagnose yourself with depression or low self esteem, first make sure you are not, in fact, just surrounded by assholes.
