Recovery & Healing

i went through a lot of psychosis, starting in my teens, with a section on a locked ward at the age of 17. Went through a very tough time in my 20’s & early 30’s, with 3 more hospitalisations. i was also in addiction/alcoholism.

i got clean/sober age 28 & am now 42. It hasn’t been an easy journey. i still get a lot of anxiety, depression, odd mental & emotional states, problems with sleep, & different struggles with things. i have also made a lot of progress.

i do accept the diagnosis, take the medication & try as best i can to live as fully as i can.

Haven’t been able to work for the past 13 years, & i don’t think i will again. i feel done in from everything, feel exhausted & drained a lot of the time.

Wonder what else i can really do about a lot of things, other than plod on as best i can with it all.

i don’t really want suggestions - just wanted to share something of where i’m at & about healing for things.
