Mental Health ~
So I finally was diagnosed with two things by my current therapist which are both what I suspected. Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Major Depressive Disorder, both of which I have been given a treatment plan for. And both resulting from childhood trauma and emotional abuse, heh.
I suppose on one paw I feel good about now having a diagnosis on the issues I've struggled with, but on the other it really kind of hits home how bad some of them really are. Anxiety and depression are a constant struggle for me, although I've been able to keep myself moving forward in good ways. They still sometimes hit me like a truck and unfortunately still once in a while unload on friends with a massive info dump on my feelings.... Something I've been aiming to kind of stop doing, which I've been mostly successful with..
Anyway, guess I just wanted to be transparent to everyone about it because in a way its a relief, but also a mountain I've got to keep climbing.
