Hi everyone. I'm just a bit frustrated and upset.

I really hate the mixed messages that I get from people about life with MI. Is it just me or do you get that too?

On one hand it's almost as if people say to reach for the stars because life doesn't end with mental illness. On the other it's like people say just don't reach too high because I'll always be limited in what I can accomplish. I don't know. I'm just feeling a little discouraged from a conversation I had earlier today. This person has a way of making me feel like I can't achieve any goal or dare to dream big. I'm also feeling aimless so that doesn't help. Oy.
