Hi, Jill
Welcome! I liked the way you referred to the illness as being a survivor.
I am glad you came here and hope to hear from you again. I have been Chronic Mental Illness for over 10years myself. Primary diagnosis just keeps changing on me. Now is that of Bipolar type 1. Also the others you mentioned with PTSD and Adult ADD.
The daily surprises sound familiar too.
Glad that you are here. Have a good day.

If you think you have totally gave up, you haven't, because you are here!
