My journey
Just thought I'd make a post about my journey with mental health.
My problems began when I entered high school. I was friends with the "popular" girls I guess you could call them. I wasn't huge but I was probably 20 pounds over weight. I began restricting my food. I also had severe anxiety and depression. I didn't want to go to school because i felt like I was always being judged. I began self harming. Usually when I was having anxiety or feeling really bad about myself. I did this probably three times a week. In the 12th grade I began dating a guy who I had known for a long time. I hid all my insecurities and scars from him so he never knew anything was wrong.
When I got to college I was so stressed out and overwhelmed. On top of that my bf broke up with me. I began drinking everyday.
Finally I talked to my dr about what I was going through and I was diagnosed with anxiety and depression. I was put on meds and to this day I'm doing so much better.
I'm with a man who never judges me and loves me unconditionally.
I still have days where I can't get out of bed, but I've come to learn that it's okay. For every day I don't get out of bed theirs 20 days that I do!
