Sorry about the late podcast guys, I was dealing with a lot this week, including the passing of my grandmother, which inspired this episode. As someone with Mental Illness I always struggle when a huge setback happens and a loved one's death is the ultimate setback, but it also helps me put things in perspective.

So despite what the title says, I am talking about personal responsibility, but also separating yourself from your mental illness. I think it's important to see who you are in totality, not just think you yourself through a mental illness lens.
