Full Quote from MARKEL:

"I used to feel broken in many ways. I could never shake the feeling of being unworthy... of being unimportant. I was never enough, or I was just too much for people. I always felt like an outsider in any room I was in. It got to the point where, when people were curious to get to know me, I would push them away out of fear of them seeing just how broken I felt. We push our insecurities to the forefront, covering our true beauty. Our true selves."
