Hey mike, I know how you are feeling, and I know you won't believe me, but I'm in a similar situation, in that the pain is far away from what the world sees.
I've learned to keep things inside due to being mocked by those who are supposed to love me, telling me that I have nothing to complain about, that my life is 'perfect' compared to others.
They have no idea, they couldn't possibly, because they can't read what goes on in my head and in my heart.
I suppose what i want to say is, I know firsthand what a relief it can be to speak to someone anonymously about everything you have bottled up, to not be judged, to not be mocked, to have someone to listen, for once...
If you wanna chat, about ANYTHING - movies or books, if that interests you - just message me.
