I never use my mental illness to excuse my behavior to the people in my life, but holy fuck. I AM mentally unwell. And it DOES impact my behavior. And the people in my life know I am mentally ill and they expect me to just be NORMAL and it’s so frustratin

Like I AM trying. I am trying my best. But I am only medicated for one of my mental illnesses. And to clarify, I have been clinically diagnosed by multiple professionals for each diagnosis, I am not self diagnosed. And while I would never blame my unusual behavior on mental illnesses, that doesn’t mean my unusual behavior isn’t caused by my mental illnesses. I just wish my family would give me just a little bit of grace while I deal with everything going on in my head and body.
