When mental disorder hits us, it often upsets our lives completely. Sometimes it's catastrophic. At first we swim desperately, trying to keep our head above water. Later, tales from other "survivors" help us to know that there CAN be life after mental illness. Acceptance of what is, and facing forward are essential to reclaiming a productive fulfilling life.

No surfer I know rides facing backward. . .It just won't work.
