Resolved Question

How can I pursue dreams for the better in my life if people have power & control over me & evil opinions?

I have a disability, & I do as righteously as I can, but by other people ignorantly & wrongfully believing I'm crazy & retarded, don't belong in society, don't have a right to live, etc., how can I gain power or control of my OWN life if others have power of whether to throw me in the mental hospital, court ordered & against my will, & I'm not even a threat. I suffer OCD, anxiety, depression, & Tourette's. It's HARD! I'm 26 with a college degree, trying to pursue a Master's. But how can I do that with people overexaggerating my mental disability & being ignorant of my diagnoses, & because (in their opinion), I'm a danger or threat to myself or society, just because of a TS outburst? How can I accomplish things? How can I get the PSYCH world off my back?

I'm sorry, but it will not be easy to get haters to leave you alone. I know! What is really important is to be the warrior of your life, which depends on you for survival. dently, you have dreams and aspirations[which I wish you all the best with],but only you can accomplish them, or forsake them. At times, life can be very hostile, and when this happens, all one can do is say,"o.k., I live in a hostile universe! So be it.I will fight for the right of my being!" things change. Time will erode on everything, your problems as well. Out live them! LOL

deadant7	Posted Oct 2nd, 2009 at 10:35PM if legal action is being taken against you, (you are about to be committed), you may have the right to court appointed counsel. if you are just worried that is going to happen, the best thing you can do is to be 100% compliant with your doctor's instructions (and caseworker or counselor if you have one) and avoid unnecessary confrontations with these people you are writing about.

LetMeGo2	Posted Oct 2nd, 2009 at 10:36PM I pray that things get better for you! PLEASE don't let the opinions of others enter you mind. You know who you are and whose you are! Continue to do what you are doing and know that because you are dealing with the disability that you have and you are pursing your Master's degree that people are more jealous of you than anything! Continue to open up on EP and most of all continue to love yourself! TAKE CARE! Rated: +1Vote for this!
TouchMeNot	Posted Oct 2nd, 2009 at 10:39PM You can control the situation or you can allow it to control you. I was told that once by a therapist. If the cops come tell them truthfully that you have Tourettes, OCD, and Depression. That you are not a threat to anyone including yourself and ask them to instruct your nieghbors to mind their own business. It sounds like you are living next door to a busy body. You have just as much of a right to use the police to inforce a right to privacy and peaceful living as your neighbors do. Tell the police that if your nieghbors continue this harrassment against yourself being a handcapped person you will ask for charges filed against them. Rated: +1Vote for this!
