![]() ![]() ![]() How difficult it is to explain that _knowing_ this and that is irrational doesn't make it any easier to deal with. Seeing the pain you cause your loved ones, just being near them, so you try to protect them from yourself. How it limits your experiences, alienating you from the things "everyone" go through. How exhausting it is to fight, fight, fight every day, just to do the things others do as easily as breathing. The pretending to be better when those around you think you _should_ be better - cause hey! They've been so understanding, right. The not knowing what is you, what is your illness and what is your mefications. Being afraid of what people would think if they really knew you. The wanting to be normal, thinking you're weak, thinking you're a bad person, despising yourself. I loved this book because it explains exactly what it is like to have a mental illness. ![]()
