This caught my eye

 

I felt the need to post this as I suffer from major depression that I have had since the age if 5, chronic suicidal ideation (OCD thoughts that go through my head at random since the age of 5), PTSD from living as a child in an abusive environment. All of which I am on medication for and it works great for me.

I'm not looking for sympathy just to be understood when I have a down day. I have been in therapy for 14 years with a psychiatrist and the last conversation I had with her was, if you need me you know how to get a hold of me. I have her cell her home phone and her office and haven't talked to her in over a year and don't feel the need to. 

I have worked hard in my recovery and still am. I'm also an alcoholic and working a 12 step program which has helped me out immensely. Plus I'm very spiritual with a higher power that I chose to call God. Why do I break my anonymity the same reason that I chose to talk about my mental illness? To remove the stigma that surrounds it. I know what works for me may not work for anyone else. I just feel the need to talk about it on occasion when I come across something that interests me. 

Well that's about it for now God bless and keep safe.
