    Thanks for speaking out Cam. Adopted people are the only experts on adoption

      As are donor-conceived people, sometimes people call them half adopted … this is also very relevant for them

    I wish there were more mental health resources for adoptees. I've been through a ton kf therapy, rehab etc and I've only met a few competent people. but not really any therapists. I want help from my C-PTSD- it comes from being given up, the stress I had in the womb + alcohol exposure, severe neglect until I was adopted from the orphanage at 16 months. We just lay in a crib, all day all night with very little human interaction. I wasn't held or shown love. Likely no toys or chance to explore the world as an infant. And all of that for 16 months while not having enough to eat.
    I am grateful I survived to get adopted and to a good home. However, the trauma I have is still so deep and repressed, because therapists don't understand I've just been researching online to learn and heal. I hope I can start my own adoption support group for my local area and that I can reach and help others as well as myself.

    Great contribution to change the narrative to our own so those who need it experience a world of recognition instead of disbelief and ignorance, as it was in the past. We, NLKRG, will share this in Europe.❤

      YES that recognition instead of ignorance, worldwide! Thank you for your encouragement and willingness to share, so much appreciated!!

      As an adoptee out of the fog, the time for critical adoption studies is right. This hits all the points.

    Appreciate the detailed breakdown! I need some advice: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). Could you explain how to move them to Binance?
