Lee, you are very mature.
Realizing you need help shows strength. It took me a long time to finally go to therapy.

Plus, I just wish that people would view mental health like they do physical health. If someone gets diagnosed with a physical medical condition, everyone rallies around them. If someone is diagnosed with major depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, or a personality disorder, etc. it seems many people don't believe it or don't try to understand it or don't offer the needed support.

THIS x 1000. It irritates me how people think people who suffer from depression are just lazy? People think that depression = lying in bed and watching tv once in a blue moon. It's just frustrating that people refuse to acknowledge that mental health is just as important and that they shouldn't dismiss somebody's struggles.
