What I Wish I Knew Before Getting Diagnosed with Mental Illness

 What I Wish I Knew Before Getting Diagnosed with Mental Illness Getting diagnosed with a mental illness is a life-altering experience. For many, it brings clarity to years of confusion, pain, or feeling "different." But it's also overwhelming, scary, and full of uncertainty. When I look back, there are so many things I wish someone had told me before I received my diagnosis.

A Diagnosis Isn’t a Life Sentence  When I first heard the words associated with my mental illness, they felt heavy — like a permanent label that would define me forever. I feared judgment, limitations, and stigma. What I didn’t realize is that a diagnosis is not a life sentence. It’s a starting point for understanding yourself better.

Ericsson On-Demand: Redefining Core Networks for the Cloud-First Era

Ericsson has introduced Ericsson On-Demand, a first-of-its-kind SaaS-based core network solution that reimagines how Communication Service Providers (CSPs) deploy, scale, and manage their networks. Designed to eliminate traditional infrastructure barriers, the platform enables CSPs to launch full-scale core network services within minutes—drastically cutting deployment time and unlocking new levels of agility.

Built in collaboration with Google Cloud, Ericsson On-Demand harnesses the power of AI infrastructure and Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE), backed by 24/7 managed operations from Ericsson’s Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) teams. The result? A fully cloud-native, consumption-based solution that empowers CSPs to innovate, scale, and operate with unprecedented speed and efficiency.



Why It Matters:

In a time when CSPs face mounting demands for faster innovation, lower costs, and greater operational flexibility, Ericsson On-Demand delivers a transformative answer. It combines telecom-grade reliability with the elasticity and global reach of the public cloud—offering a pay-as-you-use model that eliminates upfront capital investment and overprovisioning.

Key Capabilities:

  • Instant Provisioning: Launch core services within minutes, not months—accelerating time-to-market.

  • Elastic Scaling: Adapt instantly to changing traffic demands without infrastructure headaches.

  • Transparent Pricing: No hidden costs—pay only for what you use.

  • Global Reach & Resilience: Built on Google Cloud’s 42-region footprint and AI backbone.

  • Zero-Touch Operations: End-to-end management powered by Ericsson’s AI-driven SRE support.

  • Security by Design: Robust identity management, geo-restriction, and cloud-native firewalls.

Ideal for both large-scale CSPs and emerging markets, the platform is tailored for distributed, compact core deployments—supporting everything from fixed wireless access (FWA) rollouts to enterprise-grade mobile networks.

Industry Voices:

Eric Parsons, VP, Cloud Software & Services, Ericsson:
“Ericsson On-Demand isn’t just about faster networks—it’s about smarter leadership. It empowers CSPs to break free from infrastructure constraints, seize emerging opportunities, and lead the next wave of digital transformation.”

Muninder Singh Sambi, VP & GM, Networking and Security, Google Cloud:
“Our partnership with Ericsson brings CSPs a scalable, AI-driven foundation for 5G core networks. Together, we’re shaping the future of telecom innovation—where agility, intelligence, and customer impact come first.”

With Ericsson On-Demand, CSPs can think bigger, move faster, and deliver smarter—transforming vision into velocity.
