Today is my 5 year wedding anniversary, and I feel proud enough to share with you all.  

I have been with my wife for 12 years, married for 5 and she has been with me through my worst downspells and my most severe ups.  She was the one who compelled me to see a therapist, and a Psych, which resulted in an official diagnosis and getting the help I needed.  

We have a 3 yo daughter with another on the way.  I have a steady career, with a house and many opportunities ahead.  It’s hard to explain how incredibly lucky I am to have found someone who not only understands, but wants to actively help, and she is the only reason I have the family and life that I do.  

Just wanted you all to know that it’s not always down, and with the right support and help, you can do great things.
