When I think of healing, I think of recovery and growth. This in return reminds me of movies and novels and the journey of the “hero/heroine”. But in real life, it didn't really feel that way...   - My Blog: https://viktoria-marie.com - Blogpost: <a href='https://viktoria-marie.com/notes-on-healing-recovering-from-depression/'>https://viktoria-marie.com/notes-on-healing-recovering-from-depression/</a> Tag along with me on: - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/own.it.vm/ - TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@byviktoriamarie

Notes on Healing - Recovering from Depression

Own it! is about owning back your life. May that be from physical/mental illnesses or just from a constant struggle with mental health.  I always knew that my life is my responsibility and mine alone. I wasn’t waiting for somebody to save me, but I for sure was hoping for it as I had no clue what I was going through. I thought I was a failure instead of depressed. I thought I was weak, because of my eating disorder (bulimia). I thought I was sensitive to the ways my celiac disease challenged me mentally. But in all honesty, I and all the people who live with a mental illness are quite the opposite.  Here on “Own it” I want to talk about just that. About how a mental illness feels like, what I did to get better, why I didn’t ask for help, how challenging recovery is, and a lot more. I want to keep it personal, cause I’m just like you a 22-year old that is scared to be different in a sense of not being considered “normal”…For a long time, I was terrified by stigma. And though I’m still scared of it, I know I’m stronger! And you are too!
