I really hate how the people around you try to fix you. I hate how if you do not do what they say or don't recover as quickly as they want, their support starts to disappear. People say that those with mental illness push away others, but people also abandon those with mental illness. I try to talk to accept support, but if I say the wrong thing, or if heaven forbid I'm not the most optismistic person alive, then I'm obviously not helping myself. GGGGGRRRRRRRRRR!

It is said an Eastern monarch once charged his wise men to invent him a sentence, to be ever in view, and which should be true and appropriate in all times and situations. They presented him the words: "And this, too, shall pass away." How much it expresses! How chastening in the hour of pride! How consoling in the depths of affliction!
