Stigma............

I hear some say there is a stigma towards mental illness.

I guess I am living it it. I have become a label not a human being: weird, weirdo, headjob, nut, nutcase, creep, strange, dickhead, wanker, basket case.

I suppose these sort of labels could be soul destroying, but I guess my soul is stronger than that. I am damaged, but not destroyed, my humanity remains. I have achieved, I enjoy life. I am not a good human being, angry, bitter, introsopective, but I am a human being nevertheless. As human as anyone else.

I don't give up. I am a survivor. Some said that to me once "You are a survivor, some people don't survive the things you have been through."

That's a label I like- a survivor.
