I Am Not My Disorder
Don’t look at me as a mental disorder. Yes, I have one. Yes, it is my life. But no, it isn’t who I am.
Someones mental disorder doesn’t define them. It affects how they live their life but it doesn’t affect the person they are.
Someone with depression could be the sweetest and most entusiastic person in the world. Someone with anxiety could be the person who pushes you to do the extreme and interesting.
Don’t judge a person by what they deal with, judge a person by how they let it define them.
We are not our disorders, we are just affected by them. Please remember that.
