I value myself more than I thought, and I have great friends...I learned that there is a place I can go to at school if I need to...I got to know my friends better and I can relate to people more than I thought I would...It's okay to set boundaries with my friends...I learned how to trust adults more with my issues...I learned that everyone has their own struggles and that no matter how big they are, you can always overcome them...
