Hi n20

It’s good to hear that you are receiving treatment. 😊 You are young, it might not seem like it now, but with help there is a very good chance of recovery. Being younger the mind is very flexible and not yet set in its ways. You are also very self-aware and clearly intelligent with a bright future ahead of you.

It may surprise you to learn that every single person on the planet suffers from mental health difficulties at some point in their lives. Some people recover better than others.

I found it beneficial to learn from people who are coping well in their recovery.

Believing that recovery is possible is an important part in being open to recovery. Trust that your therapist has done this before and is good at their job. It is your job to learn from your therapist how to take care of yourself and be your own therapist. Of course, if there is something that you disagree with it is a good idea to stick up for yourself and discuss it. Therapists appreciate when people do that, so they can fix any problems.

Love and best wishes! ❤️🙏
