mental illness

Daily writing prompt
What’s something most people don’t understand?

Most people who don’t have mental-health conditions in first-hand experience or in close family relation don’t understand it. Even the psychiatric doctors may not truly understand what it’s really like from inside view, or they understand some conditions but not others or the comorbid medical/neurological diseases their patients struggle with. My own experiences are deep, profound and has made me very empathic with my fellow psychiatric patients whether family, friends, people I meet at the psych ward or a complete stranger I hear about online or in the news.

My illness affects everything I experience in day to day life. I have abusive voice-hearing and paranoid delusions even I’m on two different antipsychotics and other medical or social interaction treatments. The anxiety, bipolar, obsessive thoughts, and lets not forget to mention my temporal lobe epilepsy and Asperger syndrome as well, are strong influences to my experiences.

And thank you so much for visiting my blog today ❤
