My Adoption Journey

Every Adoptee has a journey. A story to tell. No adoptee journey is easy. People have said well, you should be happy to be adopted. Let me tell you. It really isn't the most happy thing. Just to clerify, yes, some parts can be happy. Like having a careing family. The sad parts. Just the overal struggles an adoptee will face. There has been some adoptees who have commites suiside because of adoptee struggles. Thankfully, even thogh a part of my adoptee journey is pretty sad I am not one wanting to commit suiside. For me, when sad things happen in my life I only fight harder. So, I don't think I will ever stop fighting. When my friend tells me abput her life and how she has struggled it really helps me see things a little more differently. My friend has struggled a lot throughout her life as well. She has been diognosed with depression because of all of her struggles. I am not one to tell other peoples struggles so I will leave it at that. Now, back to adoptees. So, I may not be struggleing from depression like my friend that I mentioned however, I have anxiety. I never stop worrying. A day dose not go by where I don't worry. Before, I used to worry about my birth family a lot. Not anymore since, I have found them. Wich I will get to later. But, now I just worry about general things In life. Both my therapist and I belive that it could have came from my adoption since the seperatiom anxiaty is really the hightest. I was doing well with my seleratipn anxiaty however, thanks to camp I will not tell you wich camp, it has came back. I have my separation anxiay a lot more now. So to wrap this up, I will be telling my adoption story.
