"“Tell me: do you know the best way to cure a 
sickness of the mind?” Legion’s most nefarious 
personality asks. “You don’t, you idiot. You just find ways to live with it.”

With mental illness, there’s a tendency to think 
that the disease is the one that rules you. It 
tells you when you can be happy, when you can be 
sad ­ cruel permissions granted at its behest. 
But you don’t have to let it rule you. You can 
stand in defiance of it, reclaim governance of your mind and soul.

This is what Legacy teaches. You may never 
obliterate the depression or anxiety or whatever 
else may plague your mind and soul. The truth is, 
they never disappear; not fully. But they don’t 
need to. Ruling doesn’t necessarily mean 
dominating or suppressing, but controlling ­ 
co-existing, while making clear the chain of command."

You rule you.."
