The biggest change I had to make, to achieve my first level of healing, was letting go of everything I thought I knew about myself.

To realize you’ve been too insecure to live in your full truth when you pride yourself on your confidence? Then the depression came harder. Now, the biggest change I’m making is completely passing my life over to God.
