Mortality can be a difficult place for someone suffering with mental and emotional health issues.  It can very much feel as though your mortal body is controlling you rather than you your body.  And yet with all of this it is so important to remember that the your spirit is perfect in form and function and one day we will be resurrected perfect and "Finally Free".

The path of the disciple is marked by our relationship with the Savior.  Often we look for the divinely appointed steps of exaltation, thinking that all must be revealed to us as we walk the path.  The truth is that beyond the revelation we know to be revelation exists a strong undercurrent of revelation that we don't see keeping us moving ever forward on the path.  The Lord can do a great deal of directing and guiding through small and simple means that we do not see or recognize.

Are you on the path?  Are you in good standing with the Lord? Are you enough and can you feel it? So often these questions cause us deep reflection and trouble when it comes to living the gospel with mental and emotional illness.

Perfectionism is a very unique coping mechanism built to calm our personal anxieties.   However, it can be an often is problematic to life in this world and the church.  We can view the church and world's requirements as daunting, overwhelming and difficult to bear.  Yet when we come to understand why we use perfectionism as a coping mechanism we can better come to know the Savior and the mercies and grace of his atonement.
