The lowest I have ever gotten is the time I decided to make the choice to go aginst my mother. It’s not that I ment to do anything to hurt her. I just wanted to try and find some way to be seen as ‘normal’ in society. For years I had been fighting an internal conflict and I did not know the proper way to deal with my situation.
