Hello @bethyi,
I come from a family with very challenging mental health problems. It brings me to tears at times seeing the condition of my Mom with mental health problems from the time I was a baby. That being hard enough watching other members of the family fight similar battles overcoming suicide has really brought the family together in ways that I never imagined. We have had to become stronger through all of the things we have faced. This community is much like a family in many ways working to help each other become more successful.
I know there is a God that cares for us and wants us to be happy healthy and successful. Some times we feel we get the short end of the stick. We become strengthened through the hard and heavy things we lift to makeus stronger through life to be able to help other people.
I am sure you have the ability to understand others in similar situations unparalleled to many because you have empathy and can relate to them.
Best,
Isaac
