Little Turtle:
Thank you for your military service!
Thank you for your life's work!
Thank you for your opinion and personal transparency!
I found your thread yesterday, and finished reading it today. (Although depression is a large and daunting part of my illness, I mostly must avoid this forum & that of Anxiety because of triggers.)
We've watched as you opened up to reveal deeply entrenched pain and were heartsick with you. Those confidences prompted others to follow suit in sharing their innermost pain.
We heard from other mental health professionals admitting to having their own issues who must weather the storm of judgment rained down upon them by others in their profession. I would rather be treated by them than anyone else in the world--regardless of status or reputation. I know that no one understands without having been there. I know that because before my psychotic break and subsequent panic attacks, though I had all the compassion in the world, I did NOT. HAVE. A. CLUE.
