People push themselves and others to change when their opinion is that they can do better. In this case you’re saying you’re getting help and improving but people around you seem to think it’s making things worse? Did I get it right?

Many times people disagree on a very fundamental level. The first step is you agreeing with yourself and accepting yourself, which seems to be under control.

The last step is quite often about after life considerations. Since I’m not religious, many will find my opinion over simplistic: that’s not a thing so why care. Fortunately the Pope is more progressive than their followers. The message is, taboos change over time.
