I have a chemical imbalance that, in its most extreme state, will lead me to a mental hospital.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
A mood disorder is dangerous. You've got to get those dramatic waves of highs and lows stabilized. It's dangerous if you don't.
I am mentally strong, but physically I'm constantly unwell. I internalise a lot of things, and if something stresses me or disturbs me, I don't talk about it and make myself sick with it.
No amount of therapy will take care of a chemical imbalance of the brain.
Of course, I've known people who have mental difficulties, so I know how fragile people's psyches are and how little it can take to overbalance somebody.
My personality is extremely unbalanced.
My goal is to see that mental illness is treated like cancer.
When you're clinically depressed the serotonin in your brain is out of balance and probably always will be out of balance. So I take medication to get that proper balance back. I'll probably have to be on it the rest of my life.
Mental illness is a very powerful thing. If it is with you it is probably going to be there until the day you die. I am trying so hard to break mine, but it is not easy. It is my toughest fight ever.
Chemotherapy tests your sanity.
I have a healthy body, free of the chemicals that once controlled it.
