When I Finally Said "Yes" to Receiving Treatment
Seeking help for mental health issues
Thank you for not giving up on me when most others would have done so.
Honestly, I needed treatment years ago,
But something was holding me back,
Or someone...
It was me.
Looking back at who I was then is strange.
My first flight in a plane was the beginning of a journey,
The portal to higher level treatment and care,
Thank you for being the anchor that I needed so much,
Thank you for writing me letters,
And staying in touch.
Everything fell into place the way that it needed to and I am thankful for all of it.
It was hard work,
But it will always be worth it as I look back on all that happened amidst my stormy sea.
Now I see the beauty that has been created in me.
