Told one of my best friend's from highschool about my current questioning today. He said he didn't give a f* what I was, that we're still brothers and he always has my back. Then we went on to talk about the newest episode of It's Always Sunny. I've realized I've been my own worst enemy by hating myself for all these years. Once I accept who I am, I will be able to move forward and be much more productive in my career and every other aspect of my life. Speaking of which, I need to go study for tomorrow's competency exam on nerve conduction studies. Once again, I would probably not be going through this process and climbing deeper into a depression had I not found this site. Thanks to all.
