It can be powerful when someone actually listens and validates us without dismissing our feelings. Was there a specific moment in your life where you felt genuinely seen and heard

Respected!

Understood and not seen as an object or source of entertainment!

@LanaAfterDark I've been thinking about this question a lot and looking back and there was always a dismissive or judgemental attitude...

Except when I took a course and for the most part I barely spoke or interacted because I wasn't comfy expressing myself yet..

But there was an exercise and everyone shared a bit and no-one was scoffing or judging, just listening and being supportive.

So although I was hesitant, I shared a tiny fraction of my life and emotions and it was well received and I think most said, Wow, you don't usually talk, so I wanted to hear more...

That to me was one of my turning points, that actually, sometimes it was alright to talk...
