@Daniel Balan Do you feel today better and calmer than the times before you revolted?

I feel a lot better. Even though my survival has become much harder because it is really hard to do everything by yourself, but in exchange I found peace of mind, I found self esteem, I found self love, I found authenticity and serenity. When I was a teen I found myself conforming a lot to the customs and beliefs of the people around me and I hated with a passion myself back then. I conformed out of fear of rejection. Now I love myself and I am really proud of myself for mustering the courage to have shown the middle finger to the herd.

Great. Sounds you are in your right path.
