I’m so proud to know you. You are such a brave and wise spirit. I too suffer from mental illness, and have similar fears about being rejected. I was diagnosed with PTSD and lately anxiety and depression. Art, therapy and making positive life choices have helped me too. I’ve spent some time looking at the gifts of my mental illness, it’s helped me to have more empathy for others, more situational awareness, and a greater ability to overcome fear to accomplish things. I’m here for you I my friend. I’m proud to call you my friend. ♥️ I too have very vivid dreams and I think of them as gifts, they tell me things I need to know about myself that I haven’t been able to see. Mad love 💕 and mad pride for you.
Thank you for sharing!! I am also schizophrenic and it’s hard I agree with you so much on the voices and hallucinations. I was diagnosed when I was 27 and now 34. It hurts because sometimes I wonder if I’m good inside, or an asset to society? I take it one day at a time . I love your courage and you as a person we need to stay strong!!
Holy Rabbit Woman, Miigwetch for sharing your truths, experiences, and progress as you move through and with this understanding about yourself. A dear sister offered to me that we are not bound by colonial limitations and I offer that to you now for every aspect of your being. I am proud to be connected with you and respect your courage.
None of this is your fault. These “illnesses” are a western medicine concept, we all have different brains and you have gifts, we have to change the narrative - stay strong, keep sharing - the life expectancy for autism is 35, because we all kill ourselves :( I know - you’re not alone
