“I do think it had to happen, her finding out had to happen, because I was slowly dying. I, literally, was slowly dying. I was a shell of a person by the time she found out.
I’d been sick for seven years. I was really sick for two, sick for seven. No doctors could figure out what was wrong. Now I know it was because the lie and the secrets were festering inside of me. I was really seriously dying inside.
I wasn’t happy. I wasn’t living my true authentic life because how can you live a life? How can you live a true authentic life when you’re a liar? When you’ve kept secrets like I did, you can’t. Everything I did was kind of, in my opinion, a lie. ”
