RE: Acknowledging the State of My Mental Health, or lackthereof 😐
I'm accepting your hug with open arms, @didic. It's crazy to me how just a few days ago, this was a figment of my imagination. My misery was unreal and paralyzing. And now, opening up about it, which seemed so scary and minute and simple and possibly like a terrible idea, it's no longer so scary at all.
When my SO's depression hit, she didn't tell me for months. She was sure it was gonna be the end for us. But talking about it robs it of much of its power. Not all of it, sadly. But quite a bit!
