I am NOT my illness!💕

I realized after talking to mom that, my identity is my illnesses. I learned I am actually doing better than I think I am. I am still depressed but I am getting better. I identify with bipolar, depression, anxiety, and social anxiety. I am so much more than my illnesses. I am Renae: creative, smart, beautiful, cat lover, singer, writer, coffee obsessed, book nerd, and child of God. I am NOT my illness. I also learned that I am so used to being depressed I don’t know how to be happy. I have decided that I am done with identifying with my illnesses and I am going to fight for recovery. I have decided that I want to live. I am ready to be happy again. I am going to fight for recovery. I can and I will get better. Yes, I am still depressed but I have changed my mind set. Now I am ready to be happy again. I can do this. I know I will still feel sad, that’s okay. I will keep fighting anyways. I am not giving up! Today I actually feel better. I am happy today. I am going to enjoy this and keep going so I can have more happy days. I am going to define myself as Renae not my illnesses. I am ready for this fight. My fight for recovery. I have hope. Let’s do this!🌟💕💜
