Major recurrent depression, anxiety disorder, ptsd, eating disorder..codependency, and more.

I don't think I've ever been mentally healthy. I keep fighting and going back and trying new things. I'm on a new added medication that seems to have raised my baseline some in the few weeks I have been taking it. I am also in a 6 month weekly DBT class. It's a slow road, but I have a great therapist and we really click. I just wish I could see her more often.

One of my favorite things I have heard is, "Would you tell someone with cancer to 'Just get over it?' There is no difference."

Have you considered trying harder?
