their mental illness
when you know its just how YOU are???"
I have not told my family members my diagnosis because of all sorts of
things, allot of parts of my life are different. I once expressed my
feelings (some crying, frustration) now any time I get upset and frustrated
at the world, maybe express a little anger, I get the poopoo act like "oh
lets not upset her she might have a stroke or something."
I also feel frustrated about people judging by the diagnosis. I have
always been careful about who I share what with and I have never been
disappointed someone I thought could handle it or trusted, never does.
Please forgive me if I'm crossing a line, telling a 6 year old he wasn't
coming back doesn't seem to be anywhere near "normal"
