When I die and my mental health issues inevitably come up, please never allow someone to say, "She struggled with her demons."
Anxiety, depression, and PTSD are *not* demons.
These are medical issues. I am not struggling with demons.
I am struggling with my health and with my mental health.
Even as a religious person, I refuse to acknowledge any such nonsense in my life. I would hate for people to further apply ugly phrases to me after I die. I have had enough of that while I yet live. Ugh. Try, if you loved me, not to reduce my life to those aspects with which I struggled. Better to remember other things that made me who I am.
