Just Keep Going…
According to Ashley of Mental Health @ Home, it is important to “just keep going.”
And, that, to me, is helpful! 🙂
I remember many years ago, being told that I had a lot of potential.
This was before I became full-blown ill, so things have changed quite a bit.
However, I still believe that one of the most important messages today, is that I must know my capabilities (which, for themselves, some people may or may not understand that, and that’s okay).
Because just knowing what I am capable of (i.e. my ability to continue improving), doesn’t guarantee me information on how far that I can go!
Thus, why the notion of “just keep going” is so important…
And, I know that there will be good days and bad days, but I am beginning to feel like I’ve plateaued with having this illness. 
How do you view your illness and its progress? Where do you see yourself headed?

The only meaning I can ascribe to my life is one that challenges me and makes me happy.

I like to self-reflect.
I am into personal development (and, I am working to become more consistent).
I have a BA in Psychology.
I enjoy reading.
I love to listen to music!
I write Prose poetry.
My favorite foods are Vietnamese and Thai.
"You will never be criticized by someone who is doing more than you. You will only be criticized by someone who is doing less than you."
I believe I make progress. I’m sure about it actually as I read my first post on WP almost a year ago.
Where I will end up, I have no idea. I know things have changed and I know I’m not the same as before the illness but I’m also afraid that it will never be ‘as good/normal’ as it was.
I don’t know, I will keep on going and hope for the best. And be content with how it turns out. That is one of my bigger goals. To be content with what is.

You’re doing amazing Mio and “just keep going.”
I don’t suppose my mental illness will leave me any time soon so like you, Ashley and Kacha, I just have to keep going.
