Great questions. I'll give pause to ponder them because I know they will help answer other important questions.
Honestly, the most devastating lies were the ones I heard, adopted and then began believing. The truth absolutely set me free. Maybe the first lie was "you're special." I would admit to being unique. Who isn't?
But believing I might be special brought a new meaning to trouble and dysfunction.
Thanks for asking.
This was two minutes well spent!
