im really glad u decided to make a positive change :) sorry to hear about what happened earlier in your life but i think that with a positive attitude u can overcome anything, ive been struggling with a non responsive epileptic disorder since the age of 13 and im now 23 ive lost basically my entire childhood and dropped out of campus 3 times due to hospitization for long periods of time and terrible side effects, but im happily engaged now and support is all all around me, weather it be from my fiancee or from FS i know that staying positive always help in the end :) good luck and all the best
