I'm Not Ashamed To Talk About My Mental Illness

I have been very vocal about my mental illness for quite some time now. It's something that has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember and I'm still struggling. I have been depressed from a very young age. I grew up in a difficult environment and that wreaked havoc with my mental health as a child. It took me a really long time to recognize that I needed to get help, and also to have the courage to speak out about my problems.
