How Writing Helped Me Confront the Pain of Growing Up Without My Father

In this video, I share how writing helped me confront one of my deepest wounds—growing up without knowing my father. For years, I lived in denial, pretending his absence didn’t affect me. But during treatment, my counselor asked me to write about it, and as I poured my feelings onto the page, the emotions I had buried for so long came flooding out. The paper was soaked with tears, but I felt an immense sense of relief. Writing helped me dig deep, face the pain, and begin the healing process.
