Have you had a mental illness?
Yes. I've been diagnosed with Depression, Social Anxiety, symptoms of Generalized Anxiety and PSTD.
Have you faced any discrimination for being mentally ill?
Not really, I don't tell people that much however.
Are there any positive things you have learned from having a mental illness?
Yes, actually. I'm in recovery now and I'm learning a lot of new coping strategies and ways to deal with things, so that. and basically, when it comes to mental health it's okay. No matter what you're feeling, it's aright to feel it.
