I have a mental health disorder it does not make me weak it does not make me defective it does not make me less of a person!
It makes me strong it makes me a fighter!

Hello ci,
Please don't take this the wrong way. I really admire your attitude. Although I think from my own experience being the being strong and a fighter has more to do with my anxiety than the world around me.
I dream of being the laid back delicate type.
cheers.

I completely understand and I feel the same to be relaxed and not have to fight is the end goal and I long to feel care free to.
My post was just my way of getting out some frustration. A family member constantly attaches of for my illness (ocd). They tell people I'm weak and make jokes about me like I'm less of a person. I can't stand up to this person without causing a massive rift in the family and I was feeling so angry and disappointed after the last comment made regarding me being the cause my husband has been ill. Which is not true!
I was just trying to say my mental health is not because I'm a weak person or less of a person than anyone else. I couldn't say it to her but needed to say it.
