Greetings,

From my understanding, mental illness, will always be apart of one. Though, with much positive effort and proper medical treatment, one can function as if he/she truly is not affected by his illness. In fact, many have their diagnosis's change to less severity later on because of such. Yet, it is not something one can simply wish for.

Therefore one cannot "grow out" of the mental illness he/she is afflicted with, though, one most certainly can positively grow, not to mention, flourish, in life, with one.

Have a good one.
