Growing up in a normal home with what I assumed was a normal family with normal problems, I learned very quickly how to suppress my feelings and not be a burden to others. I was too young to know then that I was setting the table for the enemy to have a seat there. That set the path for moment after moment in my early years to let the enemy in.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThroughout my life, it has felt like one step forward, and two steps back. Many triumphs, even more failures, losses, and grief would plague my life for decades. I couldn't tell you back then what I was facing was rooted in my mind and my upbringing, but I knew I loved my family, I was passionate about what I felt God had called me to, and no matter how far I ran, I couldn't outrun my thoughts, which would cripple me time and time again.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThrough over a decade of struggle, therapy, reflection, and learning to grieve, I believe my story will resonate with others like me. I want them to know, that although their story is unique, they are not alone in this battle. They, like me, can overcome. I want to tell you my story of growing upward.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 120\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.44 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 01, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42130751193223,"sku":"9798218465650","price":26.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/029fb050b4318df1bdc4ce94c8c9163b.webp?v=1732613511","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/growing-upward-my-lifelong-journey-with-mental-health-hardcover","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
