Try Looking At It Through My Eyes~ Day 3
Day Three - “The miracle Button” – If I offered you a miracle button which when pressed would instantly take away your mental health issues – would you press it or not? And why?
Ohhhhh, wow. The miracle button question. I am use to the “miracle pill” debate which I am a supporter of. LOL. But a miracle button…hmmmmmm. I would have to say YES to this. My reason?? Many of my choices in life, with dire consequences, were made in the throes of my disorder out of check. I made decisions when I should have been ignored and hospitalized. Had these certain decisions not been made, certain life events would not have taken place (ie, my sons abuse). I have to say that if I could have a miracle button that would remove my mental health issues, I would certainly use it and have saved a-lot of heartache for many people, myself included.
This is my life through poetry, quotes, and my journal. The intense ride of my ups and downs of life ...and the relentless mood disorders I suffer from.
I love the bit about how you shoul have been ignored. Me too. I am convinced I shouldn’t never have been allowed to sign a legal document (my marriage certificate). They had no idea what they were letting me do. Thankfully though they didn’t ignore when I signed the divorce papers some years later. LOL

EXACTLY! You are hitting the nail on the head. I definitely should have been ignored and in all honesty, hospitalized. BUT, nobody could recognize what was happening because I lived in denial, and therefor, so did those around me.

I suspect that’s easier for them. Definitely the easy way out.

Indeed, I agree.
