But, I think if you have the right set of support system, for me, speaking about it made it easier. I suddenly felt that I wasn't hiding anything from anybody whether it was my parents, my sister, people at work and my counselors. I created a group around me of people who understood me. It had moments of vulnerability, but I didn't feel that I had no one to share my breaking down moments. I had people around.”
