I am sorry that happened to you, that's awful. I think it happens to creatives a lot and we take years to claw back the confidence to create. I have two hurtful writing stories from childhood that stopped me from writing for years. It was poetry in uni where I started finding my voice again. Now, I am beyond caring! I write just because now!
I am glad you found your voice again! It would have been a shame if it always stayed silent - and I'm sorry that you had hurtful experiences rocked your confidence. As word lovers, we know all too well the power of words, good and bad. X
