Which came first the chicken or the egg? Po.tae.toe vs poe.ta.toe. Postpartum psychosis vs bipolar disorder. Hallucination vs reality. How? Why?
Yes, I am often curious. Why me? If I had not been given Percocet at such a pivotal time in my life, would I still be suffering from mental illness? If I hadn't been such a caring caseworker years before, would having a beautiful baby girl been such a trauma? If I didn't have a degree in Psychology would I have survived? Why God? Why me? 1 in 100,000 women....postpartum psychosis is VERY RARE. I get it, but....
Illness does not discriminate, nor does mental illness. CHOSEN? No, but allowed...yes. what??? Romans 8:28 "AND WE KNOW THAT ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER FOR GOOD, FOR THOSE WHO LOVE GOD, WHO ARE CALLED ACCORDING TO HIS PURPOSE." God is sovereign.
Why me? I don't know and may never know.
Is it fair? Absolutely not, but neither is life.
Does is suck? Sometimes.
Am I thankful? Absolutely.
Will I ever have the title of mental health worker again? I don't know.
WAS I chosen? I don't know
Am I crazy? We all are.
Am I okay? YES!!!
