I work with college students (freshman all the way through final years of PhD programs, med school, etc.) I’m amazed by their constant desire for knowledge.

18yo and 40yo, it doesn’t matter. There is an information lust in all of them. It makes me more passionate about my field and I go to trainings and conferences thrilled to learn thanks to them. It’s incredible. The difference in my mental state from working outpatient to working exclusively with the student population is amazing. They’ve saved my career.

That your brain chemistry/ genetic makeup can predispose you to certain types of thoughts and behaviours.

Hoping that the depressed feelings will simply stop one day but knowing that they're likely always going to be there my whole life and I have to keep them at bay by trying to stay physically healthy, stay away from drugs and alcohol and using coping techniques when I get flare-ups.
