> The combination of mental illess and work is a very hard combination.
>you know....i never think of it that way. i never think that i am mentally ill. i tend to believe that i am not. i compete with people that are not. yet often i wonder, is life really this difficult for everyone? and if the difficulties i am having are a result of mental illness, why is it so chronic? and why is it ok to have physical illnesses that go away? or disabilities that can be worked around? but not with mental illness, if thats what i have. it makes me crazy. it makes me crazy that the guy in the cube next to mine is not constantly freaking out over things or late cuz he cant get out of bed, or drugged up by meds.
why does it have to be so hard?
