I know...crazy, right?
The thing is, my health is good. I'm in good shape. I run. A lot. It helps with my depression and my OCD is playing a part in how much I run (I'm discussing in therapy)
At least w a physical illness, people SEE it usually, or at least understand it better. IDK, just venting I guess. I try to be positive. I of course don't want anything physically wrong w me, but some days, this mental thing I struggle with feels like the worst thing on the planet. We all have our crosses to bear, I suppose

I have to agree, but I can also see how other people would disagree. Personally I can handle physical pain; bone spurs, heart problems, esophageal corrosion, migraines ... I function through stuff that seems to put most people down for the count. I'm not scared of "the big day" either; I've got my stuff packed. I'm not really ready, but I won't be in this lifetime. It will be a nice trip though when it comes.
So I would rather fight all that than the mental side for two simple reasons.
1. External fights are easy, the opponent isn't myself.
2. I'll have help with the external fights instead of not getting support with the inner fight.
