Once upon a time in September the South African Depression and Anxiety Group put out a call to those living with mental illness to speak out about their experiences. This was my response to the call. It was the bravest thing I have ever done.
I also wrote a Squidoo lens about living with generalized anxiety disorder and depression which includes the text of the message, as well as some other information which you might find helpful.
Love and courage,
Trisha
