But from only reading your posts. I find you a very unique genuine person who is a good mother and working hard to get through life and its circumstances and still shine bright and see positivity.
I admire that about seeing and reading your posts.
For me oddly. My persistent delusions prevent me from wanting to be like everyone else or normal I guess.
glad you’ve come to accept it…I am proud that I wrote a book about what I went through and that is all I’m proud of…not proud of being on disability since i was 36. but it is what it is…I’m 61 now.
I can relate. It takes a certain type of courage too face such a debilitating illness. I think we are resilient and you have the right to feel proud of yourself! So, I’m proud of you too!
I’m not proud of having a mental illness, but I’m so proud of how I looked for help, I’m proud of never stopping medication, even when I was having awful side effects. I’m proud of how hard I worked, even being psychotic and unstable and how I got disability benefits after stop working. And proud of finally finding stability after being hospitalized and after trying almost all the antipsychotics available. And I’m also proud of going through a divorce without having a relapse.
