I've been there.

 I know what it's like to suffer loss.

I know what's like to pay an inconceivable price.

I know all too well what that feeling is like.

I know how it feels to be counted out and overlooked.

I know what it's like to have victory seized.

I have felt the sting of betrayal.

I know what it's like when no one believes in you.

I know how it feels to go all the way down to zero. 

I know what it's like to walk all alone.

 I know what it's like to have an insatiable sense of longing.

I know what it's like to desire fitting in and belonging.

I know what it's like to be outcasted and shamed.

I know what it's like to be villafied and blamed.

I know what it's like to be judged.

I know how it feels to be given up on.

I have been to that sunken place.

I have stared directly into the abyss.

I have been broken into a million pieces and had those shards ground into a fine powder.

I've been their.

I can relate.

I know how it feels when no one cares.

I may not have any advice or a solution to help you get through....but I have been there too.
