How odd would our world be if we had to introduce ourselves by letting everyone know what mental health problems we have first. My introduction would consist of (brace yourselves its long.) Hello, my name is Violet and I suffer with depression, anxiety, psychopathy, suicidal tendencies and OCD, and before you begin I know psychopathy sounds like something a serial killer would have and i know that it was probably thought of because that is what I thought, but in all honesty it means that i lack empathy. 
   Let me tell you, psychopathy mixed with depression is genuinely one of the most horrible things anyone could bear with, on particularly bad days I feel like a robot that from the moment I switch on all i can feel is pure sadness, its not great. 

One thing that i have been able to overcome has been anorexia and bulimia, I had this from the age of 12 til around the age of 16, I'm 18 now so i still suffer from a bit of body dismorphia. I was able to overcome this by having the support i needed in life. I came to have anorexia from seeing my friends losing weight and i thought this was the most beautiful thing in the world. I saw myself with rolls on my stomach when i sat and my mind saw this as fat, so i ate less and less until it was nothing at all, and if i did eat i threw it up. I also saw that my friends had relationships and i had none, so thought if i was skinnier i would be liked. If only that were true, I'm now single and i have never felt happier and i know that if anyone liked me it would be for my personality not how i looked.


 I want everyone that sees this to know there is help out there and you can move on, if you ever need to talk about anything just message me, i will see it and i will tell you anything you need to hear. I promise i am here for you!!
