My relation with mental health has been that of a prolonged discovery. It's like getting to know your better half! After some therapy, a lot of stumbling and learning it's only now that I realized that a good support system is critical to my mental health. If not your family then a good extended network, even loose, of people who understand and are there for you goes a long way in making me feel understood. I was averse to the idea of taking medication for my mental health condition. I never got it diagnosed. I finally did and I've embarked on a journey that might aid in bringing my day-to-day debilitation to a state of normalcy. It also cites how long we as a society have to go to make things like this "normal." There's hope. And as Princess Leia in Star Wars says "Rebellions are built on hope."
