Apologies if this is already a thread, but I can’t recall one.
When did you first know you were a map? Or is it more that you can see the clues looking back, even into childhood? For me I was right around puberty and getting more intense feelings of happiness and love with younger kids - of course at the time I didn’t make too much of it, and looking back I can see this was my identity starting to emerge.
Another question - how did this impact your mental health, and how is it now? I think this is a very important discussion to have. Mine got very bad once I “woke up” to the truth at 17. It didn’t really improve until I got into therapy and got on meds, 10+ years later.
