all the way out to always find something wrong with someone and use that to bring them down - Nomvelo Makhanya

I didn’t really listen to what people were saying or worried what they thought of me but I did get judged

When I visited my psychiatrist he told me that he wanted me to book myself into hospital the next day. I was hesitant. I kept thinking, 'Dr, I need to get back to work tomorrow'. I was also scared that people wouldn’t understand and that I would be away with no support

She asked me why I had the bands (admission bands) and I told her I was in hospital for depression, bipolar and anxiety. She started judging me and suggested that I was too young to be struggling with such problems. It shook me but I just shrugged it off
