Public Service Announcement: Hi. I'm Crazy.

[lookninjas]

I really feel like I should (and hopefully at some point I will) do some kind of post on my mental issues, just kind of taking stock of things and maybe coming clean in a sense (because I've never been very good with admitting to weakness, but I feel like I'm finally coming to terms with some of the shit that used to go on in my head [and, to be fair, could totally start happening again at a moment's notice]). I'm just having a hard time doing it right now, because it seems too serious a subject to fit in with all the squee that's been happening here. And yet, at the same time, it kind of does fit, because I really do think that, overall, I'm a lot happier than I've been since I was a teenager. It's just that I know that when I talk about it, people can get awkward and/or worry, so I feel like maybe it needs a more serious touch than I'm currently capable of giving it. So. IDK. Still mulling it over.

But yeah.

It's just something that's come up recently in comments here and in other communities, so I wanted to get it out in the open: Yeah, I have been diagnosed with mental illness, and I've done therapy (though not as much as I should) and I've been on anti-depressants (although not for as long as I should have been), and my brain sometimes goes down odd pathways that have nothing to do with crossover crack!fic. And I'm pretty okay with it, or at least I mostly cope well (which is something I couldn't have said five years ago), and I have no problem talking about it with anyone who's got anything to say, so.

That's that for now, I guess.
