I feel the same. I'm super aware of how everything affects me. The depression is horrible too, like others have mentioned. But as crippling as it can be, I'm forced to fight for stability since I have nobody to help me if I slip up. Who else will keep a roof over my head, food in my fridge and a car in my driveway? So in the long run it has made me a stronger person.
