[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No one knows the name of my mental illness; they all know I have periods of depression and that occasionally it is debilitating.  They know I'm very emotional, etc.   But no one knows the truth, and I hope they never do.

I work very hard to hide the part of me that I hate.

I love my children deeply, but hate myself just as much.

Are you bipolar? There’s a limited number of names of mental illnesses and they’re not very esoteric.[/quote]

No it's not bipolar.   There's an incredible seen in ER called "Sailing Away".  It's a scene with Sally Field (who is bipolar in the series by the way), that sums up my feelings about my mental illness so well.  It's just sad to have been born with such a messed up brain.   It's a painful way to have lived my life.

I'm so sorry you have to bear this burden. Thoughts and prayers to you.  Wonderful that your children have a mother who loves them so deeply--something to hold onto.[/quote]
