I dont regret any of it, looking back from now. It was a blessing in disguise. But when I was that young, belonging was really important to my self worth and at the time I didnt see it. I thought there was something wrong with me since I was continually blamed. I thought God hated me just because the church members hated me. and being in that environment just made my depression and anxiety spiral out of control. it was a vicious cycle. The LC is a miserable lifestyle. My therapist at the time told me I was free of that system and its true.
