Re: Do you have a mental illness? - March 10th 2010, 05:18 PM

Have you had a mental illness?

Yes. I've been diagnosed with Depression and Post-traumatic stress disorder.

Have you faced any discrimination for being mentally ill?

I've hit obstacles, but generally it's only myself holding me back. I think I hide everything very well from most people, to the point where it's very hard for me to even think about what happened - much less talk about it.


Are there any positive things you have learned from having a mental illness?

I think it's given me a slightly more interesting perspective of the world. I've learned to forgive people and try to see the good in everyone.
