The perceptions are mine

When a challenge arises, a crisis, a more than sad occasion like death it seems I am addicted to the drama I'll call life my life however with age I have learned to mellow and even combat the wild beast of Mania however I still am called apon when the crisis arise and with my experience
and fortitude am willing to help..I did not receive much of this in my life so I do my best to give where possible..but we all have the choice to do or die and it is a personal one what ever experience I try to command in anothers life its not there choice. It does sadden me as these are preventable and education are key to know ones benefits but yet again I am to the realization that all don't get that choice or chance

So why I ask have I been given the choice to be a voice for the addicted and mental health
as I am recovering from both.?

Not by will or by strength, but by might the fight to get well fight harder than the illness had taken me..

I am a very direct and to the point individual I come across some would say as harsh and tough
but when I am speaking to others the truth is harsh and tough and many don't want to hear and are not ready for the truth...

some have no awareness of the mental illness or addiction and that it a disease, an illness,
the right hemisphere of the brain does not allow 74% to see the symptoms,while to the observer
it is clear one is ill..so getting treatment is difficult when one cannot admit the are ill and the severity as mental health diagnosis are not favorable illness and difficult for even the patient to grasp initially however treatment is available and the doctors are there to prescribe
overall treatment options and recovery well that's usually not the case for many...

Mental health and Addiction are a widely talked about issue but what is being done to ensure the patients treatment options,quality of living,resources,support,family,work and diagnosis and recovery are substainable for the addict or mental health sufferer...

Thanks for dropping by..till next time
