    Hi Hunni! How do you feel about that diagnosis?
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    I already knew the diagnosis to be honest as they have already had me do an 18 week DBT course but i need it in writing for disabled students allowance or if i need DWP benefits again. They are putting me on a different medication that I havent heard of before - aripiprazole?

    It’s not easy changing meds so remember you can lean on us if you need to
