Gaga has helped me overcome the absolute hardest stages of my life. My past has been rough, I suffered from an eating disorder for a long time, & I attempted suicide because of my sexuality not long ago. After the Born This Way ball, I feel liberated from all these things. Gaga has made me strong. I no longer feel the need to spend days and days starving myself or staring down a toilet bowl, forcing myself to throw up. I also openly have a girlfriend now, and I feel more comfortable with letting people know and accepting myself. She helped me realize how much my life was worth, and she helped me realize how much my looks shouldn't effect me. I've realized that I am me. I will never be anyone else, and I just need to enjoy my life and embrace what I have. Sure I have bad day, but I can honestly say I'm genuinely happy. I'm healthy. I love myself, and I love everyone and everything. Thankyou Gaga, for saving my life. Thankyou for making me brave. We love you :)
