I had not thought of myself as a person with mental health issues. I knew I had been suffering with depression and anxiety issues, which I thought was quite common in the general population and it was not really something that I thought was a big deal and something to label someone as mentally ill, with mental health issues. When I thought of people with mental health issues, I thought of schophrenia and that type of thing. I have had 6 months of seeing a psychologist, I have no label as to what is wrong with me. I look around at the other people there who are going to see someone and they look obviously mentally ill, and I wonder if I look like that, I feel a bit strange about it all really, and I have been wondering what other people will make of the situation.
