If someone was to tell me that simply by having a mental health issue that it made me a bad person... I would be SO incredibly pissed off.

Having something that is a part of you that you were born with does NOT make anyone a bad person. Just like having certain skin colours doesn't make someone a bad person. Or having a certain sexuality doesn't make someone a bad person.

It's something that is a part of you. It doesn't change you, because it was always there. In your case, with PTSD, it's something that developed over a long period of time, so while you were changed, you're still YOU inside.

You really, really, need to learn to release all the stigma that you hold against mental illness. It's so easy to see in this community that everything you believe is completely wrong.
