Being "Functional" With a Debilitating Mental Illness
Yesterday was hard for me. I was dealing with anxiety and the onset of what could have easily become a manic episode. I was repressing a panic attack from the moment I woke up until about mid-afternoon. And I fought myself every second throughout that day to keep from physically running away from work, and hiding somewhere to let the episode take me over. But I didn't because we were short-staffed, and that would have been devastating to my store.
