What experiences in life helped you grow the most?
I’ve written about this topic before, but I wanted to say some more about it. I have schizoaffective condition, a kind of mix of symptoms related to schizophrenia and mood disorder (in my case bipolarity). I also have Asperger syndrome, diagnosed at age 17. My life history is possibly interesting to you, I will mention some of it. My father was absent from most of my childhood and youth, he is an addict to several substances and my mother left him in 1995. After this I went to many different schools and I had a hard time with my conditions being undiagnosed and the bullying I experienced. In 7th grade I had my schizophrenic break and I got into psychiatry in 2007. I also met my father 3 times during my teenage years, in a safe environment. I was into genealogy and wanted to know more about his biological father side like his many half-siblings and about my fathers youth years, especially since I felt like connections were important.
So what helped me grow the most? A combination of my childhood adversity, my mental-health conditions, my autistic passion and my long-term recovery process. I have been taking psychiatric medications for more than 10 years and I’m honestly grateful for the help they give me in everyday life. I also have learned a lot by blogging and reading different blogs and connect with people all over the World.
Thank you for reading, I hope it was interesting to you hearing my story. Have a wonderful day everyone ❤
