Education through Poetry
by amtheyst | January 1, 2012 at 12:33 AM
I suffer with a mood disorder which is a mental illness, But woman who suffer with mood disorders, such as depression are considered as just being weak.
Even some doctors dont recognise mental illness as a serious disease, a mood disorder is not considered a disability but it is, it affects my daily life so I would I have decided to spread the word about depression through my poetry.
I love poetry and hope one day I can raise enough money to study poetry, perhaps even get a mentor. And educate people about this disease in South Africa.

l wish you luck with your dreams about making this better understood. Writing your thoughts is a great way to understand oneself (I think), and if you can help other people to understand you in the process, you have accomplished a lot!
