I've decided to write about depression and it's effects on my life. My hope is to offer to people hope, dialogue, expression, incentive. Hope that we don't need to let it take over our lives. There is hope. At least that's how I feel today. Tomorrow, it will probably change. Stay tuned folks.
What I'm interested in starting a vlog of somesort, chronicaling the life and times of a hard hit woman, brought down by mental illness, that elusive curse, that people don't want to talk about or admit it exits. Subsequently, the shrowd of shame and embarassment, make treatment, recovery and a cure, completely impossible sometimes. The various drugs and their side effects make it frustrating for bot the doctor and patient. Some throw their hands up in the air and say Fuckit. There's no cure, there's no cure. It's like fighting bad jujus. You know it exists, but don't know how to fight this invisible intruder.
It's time to open up the dialogue. Be heard. Psychiatrists, feel free to voice your opinion, mental health workers, friends and family, come to the table and express!!!
It's what makes this human experience so much more bearable.
Peace and Blessings to All.
