I was adopted so a lot of people ask me questions about it, which is perfectly fine as long as they're not insensitive. I've heard a lot of hurtful things in my life but I think these are a few of the absolute worst.

"This is why your mom abandoned you."
Who said this? My adoptive brother.
How did this make me feel? Worthless. Like I wasn't wanted. Like nobody cared.

"No one will ever love you, I mean look at what happened to you."
Who said this? My adoptive mother.

"Why don't you just go kill yourself? Then you can be the same as your dad who did it so he didn't have to be with you and your mom."
Who said this? My ex best friend.
How did this make me feel? Like nobody cared. Like I had no reason on the earth. Like maybe I should just kill myself. Maybe I should just get rid of all of the pain. Everybody would be happy if i did.

But I didn't because I had people who cared about me. Who loved me. Who helped me through everything.
What did I learn from this? I am loved. I am not worthless. I am wanted. People care about me. I have a reason. Pain makes me stronger. I can do hard things. I am needed. And most of all, that no matter what, I will always have the love of the people who helped me during this.
