"What do you do when others judge and question you, even those closest to you? That tends to start me down the path of self-condemnation again."
This is what my big problem still is. It pushes me right back down. I seem to have no defense against this. I would appreciate your prayers for this!
"the elders literally told me I needed to grow up and face this on my own"
LOL. We visited a new little church for a while. The pastor said "the reason a person feels bad and can't get over it is because they hug it to them like a teddy bear. They want to keep their bad feelings." Well, how many of you out there LIKE to feel sad? My guess is NONE. I hate it. It's not like me. It's debilitating, humiliating, and frustrating. I felt sorry for the man because I realized he hadn't gone through this kind of valley, YET.
