Wow! So much going on. You really gave us a very honest and raw picture of this experience in your life. Be careful. Sometimes it can be good to be so open... sometimes it may not. I think you did fine here. But remember, everything you write in a post is written "forever" onto the Steemit blockchain. So don't put anything that you don't want to be there in 10 years. Steemit is like a tattoo! lol

Thanks for visiting my blog, and keep growing here on Steemit, but not by chasing upvotes or resteems. Looking for good and honest friends and followers!

I will be posting a comment with my tips to another post...your introduction post if it isn't so far back. I hope it helps (though I think you may have learned most of it already!).

Take care,
Thx
