So true. I guess I mean accept in the 'not rejecting the diagnosis' sense.
It's so hard to go with the flow. I think I'm cured every time my mood goes up and then when I'm depressed, I actually forget that I've been anything but depressed in my entire life! It's so good to talk to other people who know what's going on (and who I'm not scared will judge me. I haven't even told my mum because she thinks my depression is cured and was thrilled to see me happy...) I've spent all my teenage years being severely depressed or not being able r control myself but I thought I was just weak and lazy. The last time I was without these moods, I was 12 and I can barely remember those times. It's easy to forget that that's not just normal moods.
