Almost made me cry. I’ve been through the emotional wringer because of this. I have lost friends, my extended family treats me differently, I had to watch my siblings and best friends ignore my links to studies (or lack thereof) and get the jab not twice but 3 times. People close to me have tried to manipulate me into getting the jab/to stop living my life, and when that failed, they went right to insults.
In all of this I have not changed. I have not responded in kind to the most cruel insults, I’ve continued to do things I always have for even the most critical family members.
When this is all over and the truth is revealed, which it will be, a lot of people will have some explaining to do. I will not.
Same, I feel like I have been shunned too. If I am only sure of one thing, it's that I'm standing on the right side. But even with that I'm in a pretty bad bout with depression. It's lonely, it's tiring and this has been along couple years . Today I quit drinking, I've been over drinking to just get numb and it's making things worse. I'm not sure when this ends but it can't come soon enough.
