My name is Tin, Tin

Even though I suffer with Mental illness, I still live my life. It doesn't stop me from what I want to achieve.

It important to have good mental health, by having a positive outlook on life. It good and important to have dreams, what we would like in our life.

For me I have a loving partner who cares for me, who supports me. Is there for me etc. We get along well.

I'm enrolled to study at TAFE in Certificate IV in Business. I need to be positive, and believe in myself.

Hey there. Welcome.

I'll edit this post, since you've edited yours. Looks like it's managed to keep it's integrity with just a few anonymity adjustments. Thanks for that.

You've described what looks like a pretty decent recovery journey. Seems like you're living you're life and I'm so here for that.

Hey @TinTin1

It's nice to meet you, thanks for sharing your story. That sounds like an incredible 10 years. You should like you have learnt a lot about resilience, grief and loneliness, any tips for the rest of us?

I remember when I went to the Mental Health Clinic for my Psychiatrist appointments. And appointments with my health care workers. Now I look at it, yes I have mental illness. But it doesn't stop me for being who I am, or what I want to do. Yes, I'm a believe in god he got me where I am today.

It been hard times in my life, but when I look back on what I been thru. I need to keep myself keep on going. Keep on keeping on.

My tips, just keep going in your life. your are who you are, and be the person you are.

Have favourite movies, music you like listening to. Look at what the experience you had and be proud of what you done.

With me, I worked as a Coordinator for activity program for people with disability at the self help centre. I never thought I could do something like this.

And now look at your life now, and be content.
