Our story has many facets to it, as I am sure so many of ours do. My parents divorced when I was 5yrs & the separation was bitter, angry and painful. It had a most profound effect on my personality and life, shaped my character, for better or worse. I battled with insecurity, self worth, never speaking up if something upset me, keeping everything, no matter the personal mental health cost. What it did give me though, was deep empathy & strength.
I grew up to then witness a cruel and unforgiving mental health decline of my paternal grandma (which went undiagnosed, a sign of her era) and of a very much loved close family member who was diagnosed with bi-polar at 21yrs… bi-polar took over and robbed them of their youth, their life, their ambitions, their everything…. 35 yrs of medication, so many hospitalisations that we have lost count, 3 failed su***de attempts (one extremely heartbreaking) but still they smile and love us unconditionallly…its so hard to have to live through it… it’s so hard also to watch it from the side lines and not know what to do to help…
