I am hoping to reach out to others with mental illness and alcoholism (or any addiction) by sharing my experiences in the most honest way. Hmmmmm....too be honest I am doing this to help me keep some of the mushy brain blobs that hide my true self. Having to try to maintain a sense of "happiness" can be quite a battle when you are ill with these diseases. I don't want to get into the scientific facts at this point that these are diseases like any other such as cancer and diabetes. I often have to remind myself it is not all my fault although I can do a lot to help keep these sickness's at bay. I hope I can share some of my "toolbox" I use to keep me from harming myself along with my medications.
More on this stuff later...I want to show how Triathlons have been a huge part of my recovery.
Hope you enjoy and learn from my struggles and success.
Best in health,
Janet
