As a medical professional is it hard to overcome the feeling that you should have it all together! I'm a psych nurse with severe depression, anxiety, and eating disorder. Actually questioning whether I'm bipolar. I find it difficult in my area due to lack of mental health facilities not affiliated with my work to seek treatment from someone other than my PCP. I feel like being in this field may exacerbate my depression because I feel guilt that I don't have this under control, so how can I truly help others to heal from their mental health issues?
