I just got done

reading something

about mental  


disorders 

 I realized something. Sometimes our worst traits, in reality could be our best. Maybe its not a demon, maybe its like a super power.

I mean dont get me wrong depression sucks. Anxiety sucks. But read some of these facts I learned. 

People diagnosed with Depression: 
-Are usually smarter than the average person.
-Have a better perspective of the world
-See situations more realistically.

People diagnosed with ADHD
-Thrive in disruptive situations.
-3 times more likely to form their own business
-embrace adventure.
-Adapt at multi-tasking.

People diagnosed with  OCD
-Higher level of determination
-naturally good memory
-Doubly as compelled to learn new things.

People diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder.
-four times as capable in art.
-intense creativity level
-increased ability in observing

People diagnosed with Anxiety
-High levels of empathy and able to understand others pain and joy easier.
-understand things on deeper level.
-doubly strong levels of intuition accuracy

Perception is one's reality, no matter how distorted. It can also be one's way of coping, of seeing the brighter side of life:)

I agree with what this person did but their facts are wrong. There is truth to every statement but bad science is not science at all. I am a psychology student and can say some of these are distortions and some make no sense (people with ADHD do not thrive in areas with distractions; that is where impairment is noted).
But there ARE some great points about people suffering with mental disorders. If I can dig out my abnormal psych notes I will share sorta "real" counter post to this because I love the idea, some of the statements are based on facts, but it looks like a reference from wikipedia. Still I really like this and I think it would be great to share this with people with a mental disorder (like myself... why do you think I started studying psych haha)

I have anxiety, and this seems pretty relavent. As much as it creatives chaos in my life, it does have some minor positive things.

Depression
I'm smarter than the average person? I'll believe that :') I definitely have a better perspective of the world, and the people -_- As for seeing situations more realistically, I guess I can do that. So, heads up guys. <3 x
