This is actually sadly true.

However, I've learned a lot about myself and mental illnesses; realizing that I'd love to work in the field of counseling.

Again, I've learned a lot about myself. But I also over came my mental illness. Depression isn't so hard to fight off some days than the latter. My anxiety has toned down a lot, and I smile more. 

I really hope I made and can make the same impact on your life.
