story
I've suffered from Chronic Depression more than half of my life; I'm now 40 years old. Things got really bad a few years ago. A stressful and toxic job broke me. It culminated in a suicide attempt, almost 60 days in hospital and a concurrent diagnosis of Borderline Personality Disorder. It's been a year and half since that diagnosis. There was one more hospitalization about 7 months ago. Today I'm in dialectic behavioural therapy and doing better. But the disorder and my underlying sadness are things that can overtake me at any moment. Something I cannot remember severely traumatized me and all I got was this disorder... (Humour helps :))
