May is Mental Health Month

I know that there are NAMI Walks happening around the country.

I want to participate in one -either in MD or NYC.

Not sure how I'm gonna raise awareness, but trust me, I'm gonna find a way.

P.S. I've been thinking about "outing myself" on this blog. I said THINKING.

Gratitude Moment: Thankful that I am growing less ashamed of my illness each day.

I wrote an email to some newspaper reporters about borderline personality disorder in hopes they'd do a story about the disorder in May. May is also BPD Awareness Month, so it goes with both that and Mental Health Month.

I'm no longer ashamed of it, but I still fear that coming out would only give nasty people ammunition to hurt me. I wish I didn't feel this way.
