Does being STO make you a loser in the eyes of this world? How do you cope?

[Black Dragon]

To the OP: best advice I can give for a lot of issues including this one is to look to your higher self, rather than any other beings or sources of authority. Your higher self is the one higher density being that can and will give you the answers you are looking for and tell you what parts of your own shadow you need to look at, if you make a strong enough connection with it to listen. Once you've made that connection, you can come back to material like this and maybe have a better understanding that comes from within rather than trying to let an outside authority guide you. You can also start to gain a confidence that comes from within rather than an outer authority, and that confidence is less phases about being called "weak" for being STO.
