When I was young, I saw the world as being simple and my classmates and I could easily change it. Changes could happen quickly and easily Boomers have changed the world, bringing in consumer electronics and the Internet.
For most of my adult life, I have lived with a schizoaffective disorder, a form of mental illness. When I was first diagnosed, it significantly affected my life, through medication and decades of therapy I have brought it under control. I have have a good job, good friends, and a nice apartment. Through using CBT/DBT I am able stability of thought. I may not be able to change the world, but I can change myself.
