I wanted to reach out to say thank you—from the bottom of my heart—for writing something so raw, validating, and painfully accurate. Your words deeply resonated with me, bringing to the surface so many of my own experiences with this condition that are often invisible or misunderstood by the outside world. The emotional, physical, and social toll you captured is so real, and I’m grateful that you used your voice and platform to shed light on a reality so many of us silently endure.

I just want to say THANK YOU again and again. I know I've mentioned it a hundred times now, but you have given me the space to be free, vulnerable, and talk about my journey, which has not been easy. Oftentimes, I get so camera shy and awkward, but this conversation segued into the most beautiful conversation and eventually made me feel right at home.
