Where am I?

[Val]

Okay,
lets see if I can sum this up.

When
I was a child, I would say "But that's NOT FAIR" and my
mother would say "Well, no one said the world/life was fair."

I
always felt the world was a dangerous terrifying place. One was told
to cherish the warmth, and ease of their childhood because the real
world was a terrifying, and bleak place. My childhood was the real
world, it was terrifying, it was bleak, it was abusive and so if the
adult world was even worse, I felt, guns, violence, war, bombs, and
murder were all just normal in this terrible place. From childhood to
adulthood I became one of the many "mentally ill" 

One
line Stef said blew open the doors of my mind and shattered
everything in one moment for me. I would quote but I'm sure it's been
distorted in my head by now, he said something like, To call someone
mentally ill, is to say the world is correct and right, and that they
(the person mentally ill) is the one who is wrong. 

I'm
not even sure how I came to this video, but I know that when I did I
was trying to hard to recover from mental illness. I was so
depressed, so sad, so mad. Since then life is changing for me, it's
up lifting. It's becoming happy, and satisfying! I am so glad I'm
here now.
