As someone with several mental health diagnoses, I know first-hand the stigma related to mental illness. It's sad that so many people misunderstand it, it's no different from having diabetes or any other medical condition. <br /><br />I hope you're having a great summer!<br /><br />Blessings,<br /><br />JaneJane Doehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11087464056692451751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1095372539901904614.post-72048290604933610932009-08-01T14:03:31.539-04:002009-08-01T14:03:31.539-04:00This is wonderful and someone needs to help us all...This is wonderful and someone needs to help us all. I inherited my Anxiety with extreme panic attacks and I am Bi-Polar also.<br /><br />These are some of the main reasons I searched for years to find my biological families as I was adopted.<br /><br />I found what I was looking for. On my mother's side...Bi-Polar runs rampant and my father was an Agoraphobic as I am! I got a double whammy. <br /><br />Triple actually, due to extreme abuse as a child and young adult I also suffer from extrme PTSD.<br /><br />Both of my daughters deal with Chronic anxiety. One suffers more than the other. But, luckily neither have reached the level I have.<br /><br />I am always open about my conditions because of the stigma. More times than not, I am shunned when or deemed weak in my faith, but, nonetheless, I still openly admit to everyone!<br /><br />It has to stop somewhere!!<br />Peace,<br />JackieJackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05378896151545384221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1095372539901904614.post-73277733863816883312009-07-31T16:27:31.128-04:002009-07-31T16:27:31.128-04:00I think it is wonderful that you are starting a ne...I think it is wonderful that you are starting a new blog about such an important and misunderstood illness.
