What is an event that altered you in some way? (piefed.social)

For better or worse. Small scale or large. Personal or shared. What is an event you've experienced that changed the way you act, live, feel, etc. It could be short-term or long. Share what you feel comfortable with. Triumphs and tragedies alike.

That's really lovely! Are you still friends or in contact with them today?

I was taken under the wing of a motherly school friend after I was ostracized and bullied by previous 'friend' group....I got my diagnosis 30+ years later

I'm still in contact with one of them, the one I was closest to.

Hey, then at least you've got everything you need. I have had some friends reach out recently and we've walked down memory lane. Consider reaching out to them and seeing what all they're up to. People love hearing from people they love but have lost touch with. At least in my experience.
