My story

1 post in this topic

I lost everything due to unfavorable mental health. Quit school, got kicked out of my household, damaged my relationship with my immediate family...
It all culminated in me spending a year in bed in excruciating agony and pain, the time to find a psychiatrist that understood my case and how to help me. Since the beginning of that year to today I went from weighing 76 kg to 140 kg. Started taking the medications and the pain lifted away in a few months. Yet the hardest part was yet to come, which is to regain back everything I lost. Started working in my dad's coffee shop, starting out 2 hours a day, then 4 hours, then 6 hours... Fast forward to today where I can remain at work for 8 or 9 hours. 
I went back to studying in an institute to obtain the bt3 diploma, the equivalent of bac 2, to then be able to enter university. 
In the institute, I chose at first a difficult specialization: information technology, I couldn't complete the first day. Then switched to physical education for it being less difficult. The psychiatrist recommended me taking half a pill of Xanax before going to the institute to manage to stay until the end of the school day. Fast forward to today I am able to go the institute and attend my classes, as well as study for a certain amount of time at home. 
After a few months of taking medications, I started learning Italian, a language I love. Fast forward to today I am at a pretty advanced level in it. 
Now the goal is to pass this year, to be able to enroll in university in Italian literature, then improve my diet and maintain an exercise routine. 
Wish me well.
