From depths of despair to heights of recovery
Abstract:
While disclosure of my personal experience with mental illness and recovery is not without some concern regarding its reception by others, I feel it's important I tell my story. This is because I wish to challenge the misunderstanding and stigma that surely surround mental illness. Also, I want to hold out hope to anyone presently struggling in the direction of recovery. I know life has its ups and downs--it does for everyone. But I feel better able to cope and for now, for me, life is good; I hope this article is of help in making this possible for others.
