I received my official mental illness diagnosis yesterday. Today my mind keeps going back to that diagnosis over and over and over again. Really, how can this be? Some of it I knew about before, and some of it took me totally by surprise. I'm struggling not to let it define me or change my perspective of how things are. But in the back of my mind all day has also been the thought that it doesn't change who I really am or how God sees me.
So as I try to come to terms with everything I am constantly reminded that nothing has to change, and that knowledge is truly power.

known, yet regarded as unknown; dying, and yet we live on; beaten, and yet not killed; sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; poor, yet making many rich; having nothing, and yet possessing everything. ~2 Corinthians 6:9-10
