I was diagnosed with schizophrenia while this was being taped. I didn’t want to hate that. Since this time. I have stopped all medication, became a leader in my field, continued to be an amazing Mom, found out what recovery is and how the term “mental illness” held me down. My wonderful kiddos are 13 and almost 12 now. They are amazing. I will always will continue to be open and honest about my personal struggle, I will also continue share my experience. I was raised in a cult, life was confusing. I am living. I have an amazing family, a wonderful career. I can be open and honest. I am real. This was a start to recovery. It wasn’t the end result. ….I am grateful that I was open as much as I could be, I am sad, because discrimination didn’t allow me to be truly honest. And I am proud of the family I have, the career I have worked for, and the husband I am amazed by. Recovery from a mental illness (in quotes) is possible. It’s called life. I have it. I love it. I feel da seeing this now. I have struggled and grown so much. If this girl in voice and picture only knew….
