Like others here, I have learned alot by working through my MI. But, I would like my hypocampus to go back to normal now, and not have to work so hard at it everyday anymore. I am doing much better than last year, I have made a lot of gains, but I still struggle and have to keep working at it. I do look at others in more depth now, as well as more understanding.

I have to say that I now get very frustrated at how people who struggle with MI are so misunderstood. I dislike people who don't know what it is like who hand out "just" comments that IMO are just plain ignorant and cruel.

I feel that "awareness" will be the key to making a difference in how people with MI can find better ways to heal and adapt. The worst part for me was how people IRL were just so mean to me for something I truely could not help. To be trapped in a horrible flashback and have someone yell at you for it at the same time, is horrible and should just not happen. We truely need "awareness", it is cruel the way people are treated so unfairly.
