Some of us who are living in one day at a time recovery are people who live with mental health disorders. Some of us function at times well enough that those who are close to us and people we associate with don’t often get to see that there are times that we are unwell or for lack of a better term mentally ill. When this happens some of us are lucky enough that those close to us practice acceptance, patience and concern. Our reality is we are in struggle and in that struggle we are doing the best we can but the struggle goes on. It’s our reality. Give us time. And keep on loving us. That is what really matters for we cannot help but to keep on loving you. Many of us know the reality of one day at a time recovery but struggle is struggle. That’s our reality when we are ill. We cannot just put a bandage on it. We live it. Give it time. Peace.
