There was an interesting article about Mad Pride in today's NYT. I know that my problems are legion, and that I take a hell of a lot of medication for them (between the depression and the Crohn's). I am much more open about telling people about it, but I don't know that I would necessarily want to celebrate it. Both illnesses are an intrinsic part of who I am, and they're certainly not going to go away any time in the future, but I'm not particularly proud of them.
Blogging about it is enough, and I'm doing this mostly to get it off of my chest. Certainly not out of any desire to become famous or renowned or widely read or anything like that.
