hey guys, im in search of a person I can talk to who actually understands what I’m battling with. I was diagnosed my sophomore year after an awful breakdown I was on the verge of suicide it felt like my disorder was taking over my body and I had no control. Now I’m a senior in high school I’m medicated and I have my downs but not as bad as they were. I just feel alone. I get called crazy and no one understands.
