I am new here, having found this site courtesy of a respected senior member posting the link on another MH forum.
I have had MH problems since childhood, and have had various diagnosis including BPD, Anxiety disorder, paranoid psychosis and chronic depression.
I have mostly coped by keeping myself to myself as "normal" people do not seem to understand, and will inevitably form the wrong conclusions about the way I am and how I sometimes feel.
Finally having discovered MH forums I feel free to openly talk about my problems and my dealings with the MH system over the past 14 years. I now realise that I am not alone, and that there are many others out there who I can discuss these matters with.
