"Kati, why is my depression so so competitive?"
I thought this was a great question because I know we have talked about eating disorders and how they can be competitive, but we haven’t talked about other mental illnesses, and I am going to be honest, I think it has more to do with us and not so much what mental illness we find ourselves struggling with. Now I say that because it’s all about what we tell ourselves about our mental illness, meaning if we feel that we ARE our mental illness, if we see someone else suffering from the same thing we can feel like they are encroaching on our territory. Or if we worry that we aren’t sick enough for help, or have tried to get our parents or someone else in our life to take our struggle seriously, and they don’t, and then we see someone else who appears to be doing “worse” than us, we can be jealous or upset by that. Thinking that we should be that ill and maybe we could get help or be taken seriously.
