Mental Afflictions

This contest is only for those who suffer. Whatever...
mental illness...epilepsy, bi-polar, cutting, self abuse, so on and so forth. Not in the mainstream...let's hear it! Please do not speak of animal or graphic child abuse. I know from what you imply what you mean. If you get too descriptive I will remove your write. I will not read explicite abuse. Leave that to the imagination. Tell me how you are over-coming your past. How you cannot trust anyone is fine. Healing from this is key!

  • Final notes:
    This was a wonderful and sad contest...all of the writes were touching and my heart weeps. I have dealt with this type of thing since childhood. Whether by the abuse of another, or the simple mechanics of the human brain. Mental disease is still missunderstood and treated less like an illness and more like a choice or weakness. Nothing could be furthur from the truth! I wish I could have chosen each and every write for trophies! I do thank you all so deeply for sharing your hearts and souls! My best to you and thanks onec again!
    Peace~

    I wish you allowed pre-writes. I have a great one from when I was sick, but I couldn't recreate it in a lucid state.
