You sound so fatalistic here. That because you have mental health issues, which you did not ask for, and others have treated you badly, you are somehow doomed to fail. As someone mentioned, I suspect you have more strength and abilities in you than you think. But to point this out is not blaming you and is no reason to feel guilty. Maybe you're not 'there' yet, but it doesn't mean you can't eventually get there. Don't give up, please!
I don't quite see where I have indicated I was going to 'give up.' I just don't have the energy to fight every battle so I am ok with letting some things go. I don't think they symptoms are going to go away everything I've learned indicates they wont....I suppose I find it more useful for me to find ways of coping with that rather than telling myself I am going to 'recover' and be free from my mental ailments. I want to try and base my goals in reality not some huge dream just to feel hopeful.
