Walk with mental illness and addiction

Humble

Image
Have you ever read something or listened to something and thought "I need to share that on social media because someone needs it?" This is where I have found myself. Thinking that I no longer need teaching. Thinking I have learned all I can learn and I know so much that its time for me to give my knowledge to the world. LOL. I have to laugh at myself because getting upset will only make my days harder to claw through. So here I am realizing I have got way more to learn. That it is me who actually needs what I am sharing on social media. It almost got to where I wasn't even listening like a student I was listening like a teacher and a master. Saying "yeah so and so needs this" instead of accepting that I am the one needing it. There is one thing that is very easy to do when you are helping others is to become too big for our britches.

Walking with mental illness 7

I know the things I just shared with you in the blogs before this one are probably hard to comprehend. I understand. When we get to 2017 you will see why I decided to come out. I told you in my first blog on" walking with mental illness" that people that called themselves my friends would disappear. But I also told you everything I will say will be true. I knew the risk. I am okay with that.  Now Larue Carter ended up being closed down due to unethical treatment of patients. Someone wore a video camera in there and showed it to someone of importance. The patients got nothing but sent to somewhere new. Like dogs. I had already left before they were shut down. And I am Thankful everyday they did.  Well we got through that. (breathe)   I spent another year in a children home. It was nice there. I met my first love. High school sweetheart. He broke my heart not once but twice ,  Are you seeing a pattern? I had a very hard time with relationships because I didn't...
