Hi, my handle is SchatziKatz or Schatzi. I'm here because I'm looking for a community. For other adults who understand what it's like to navigate the US with a chronic, invisible disability. I've been getting through life with help from my spouse, but they aren't as severely challenged as I am and they don't understand in the same way. Some days I feel exhausted and burnt out just getting by day to day in the workforce.

I have had depression since I was 12 but no one acknowledged it because i was young and hitting puberty so they blamed it on that. That was until I got really sick last year. My eating disorder started 2-3 years ago and because it was untreated I developed anxiety last year. It started with stomach pain on April and went to the hospital for a week but i got no results. On August after my 17th Birthday it hit me. I felt nauseous constantly, I was shaking all the time, threw up, didnt eat, stomach pain etc. At first I was at the hospital because of my health and they had to check it has nothing to do with my physical health. I spent several weeks in diferent hospitals until October.

They gave me temporary medicine which barley helped and I still had panic attacks etc. I will post another Story about my traumas detailed since I know a lot of people struggle with similar stories. After I finally got therapy once a month they gave me Setraline which made me feel way better but I still didnt feel like myself. I was then sent to the mental hospital and stayed there for a month (daycare). Since I was still a student I had to do internships so I choose the animal shelter for a week because animals are therapy (at least for me) after that I had another internship at the hospital because I wanted to help people the way I wanted to be helped.

While I was sick in 2025 I was at my lowest and I was sure I had no future. I was so isolated I did not feel alive anymore. I used to hurt myself and had suicidal thoughts almost every day because I was done surviving and I just wanted it to end. I was trapped with my mental health and it was eating me alive. I was in bed all the time. The daycare and interships got me out of bed and yes it was hard at first but it got me back on my feet. Thats the push I needed to get better. I started to apply for my dream job at a law firm and got accepted a few months later. I am so proud to say that recovery is possible and that it will always get better it just takes time.

I am now feeling so so so much better I cant believe it. My scars are proof that I am stronger than ever because I am now working for one of the biggest law firms international and the biggest in Germany. I got my semicolon tatooed, it is small but it has a huge meaning. I am still taking Setraline and I am writing this because I want to encourage and help people recover. I know its difficult but it will get better i promise. I will post much more tips and stories about me. It is so important to me to help people because mental health matters!!!!

I am new to this app and im not sure if you can private message here but if anyone just needs advice, a listener or even just someone to not feel alone I will try my best to help. I dont want to act like a wannabe therapist. I want to be a friend who understands and been through the same

Please take care of yourself and stay safe out there.
