I relate to this. One thing I have learned about any mental illness, however it is classified is that it comes with this feeling of enough, but not too much. Enough is okay, but too much is overwhelming. Once we get overwhelmed we get lost to our loved ones, even though we don't mean to, but enough is enough and we get overwhelmed easily, and shut down, and then we make those around us upset because we can't just be like them. It's okay.....(deep breaths) you got this...we all do! It's just a matter of having a safe place, where we're not excusing ourselves for who we are. A place to vent, and be. And then go back for as long as we can until we break from trying to be acceptable in those eyes again. Until at last we start to stand on our own feet and show that we are worth something more than anyone thinks about us! Than we rise..
