Love and Mental Illnesses
Mental illness seems almost taboo. Unrecognized, or underestimated, many people just cant seem to accept that you can have a disease in your brain. They tell us, "Its all in your head." Well yes, that is the problem. See, our brain is a very vital part of us living, being the center of all bodily functions. Many people can survive losing an arm, leg, finger etc. But tell me you can survive without your head. Now, I'm most definitely not saying that mental illness makes you lose your head. The point I'm stating is that, with a mental illness, your head doesn't work quiet the same as a healthy persons would. Some illnesses taunt you, making you feel worthless, some illnesses make you terrified, pushing fear deep into your bones. Personally I suffer from Anxiety and paranoia. This makes many normal tasks very difficult.
