Dealing with Mental Illness for Life

does anyone else ever get stuck on that fact that you’ll never be cured and then get really upset because you’ll have to deal with mental illness for the rest of your life? 😅

      More than I want to. I have to force the medication reminding myself everyday this is this the rest of my life. It makes me upset that other can just live life around me.

      It’s not that you’ll never be cured. I think of it now as with each passing day and each passing moment I just get stronger and better with it :)

          @aries02 I think I’d be an entirely different person without my mental illness and neurodivergence.
