I pledge my commitment to the Blog For Mental Health 2013 Project. I will blog about mental health topics not only for myself, but for others.

A Canvas Of The Minds - a great blog so please check it out
3. Write a short biography of your mental health, and what this means to you.
I battled with depression, brought on by stress, for 10 years. During that time, I made many mistakes, due in no small part to the fact that I perceived my illness as a failing on my part. It took me a long time, coupled with hindsight, to realise that I hadn't failed in my life, but rather that the circumstance of my life had failed me. I started my blog to bring hope to those currently suffering from the debilitating effects of depression that there is light at the end of what may seem like an unending tunnel. It has been quiet a ride, which has brought me here today!
4. Pledge five others, and be sure to let them know!

I was reading your post and notice you have a link pledging my site. However the name Jon Bates is named for the link.
I appreciate the pledge but my name is Gerald Bouthner. So you either placed my web address by mistake for Jon Bates or linked my site under the wrong name. Either way I figured you would wanna know. Please advise.
I'm a bit embarrassed to say the least Gerald it is you that I wanted - Bipolar Writer - but I was trying to do several things at once, and well what can I say ;-)
Jon Bates is just happy the post is out there... and glad the attribution is accurate. :;-)
Hey Jon, I'm really not sure what happened as I know I wrote your name down for a reason - in the back of my mind you have a blog - but now I can't seem to find it!
Hello! I fought depression with fireworks for many years ... my perception of life has escaped me .. one day my life as a mother and torque broke ... I realized that I wanted saved time by causing it .. but time has caught up with reality Greyhound me! My life is balanced for some time .. my responsibilities as a mother are less difficult to make / take, and I'm much better face reality ..
My tests, those that I realized since I stopped taking drugs and alcohol are much more satisfesantes .. because I live my life pleinnement without fireworks! .. This happens to feel very unhappy and tired How it all started ... But I have developed a new meaning .. a kind of inner peace that comforts me when I meet a test .. I found that my senses are accustomed to failure and our setbacks acceuillent after rain a lovely time saving .. rather than endure the daily mistakes, I channeled directly to a reasoning that tells me why I have to deal with this, in my existence ..
This is mainly thanks to the art of living ZEN, I explored as a drug of the soul .. I'm not practicing in religion .. I do not like to be a partisan of a particular community .. I just committed to the art of living religions in order to understand the symbol ..
Strength and conviction, I realized my voice .. even worst, have taught me the meaning of my existence ..
I like to discuss these ideas and other sensory experiences / emotional / spiritual .. that seem to be in a life a difficult corner but can bring a lot of clarity, if it is placed .. Bientout thank you to everyone .. Celine
