".....You can choose to be broken, if you want. But there are other options. And the other options involve just getting on with life."
Hi, another newbie here (I hope it's ok to jump straight in and use part of a quote from another post).
I don't think being broken is necessarily a choice. Absorbing cumulative crap year after year, being loaded down with more and more stress, your very essence being poisoned until you reach saturation point.... and then suddenly you can't cope anymore, you can't 'just get on with life.' It turns around, bites you on the arse and suddenly you are in pieces - I don't thing anyone would choose to be mentally unwell.
