well, actually, sometimes being mentally ill DOES mean being incompetent.
if one can't handle being around negativity, that is one's own problem,,, not anyone elses. expecting others to change to suit us is such a waste of time and completely ineffective.
i have had plenty of so-called "friends" dump me, because they didn't like the 'symptoms' of my brain chemistry disorder... would i have quit being disabled if i could ?? In a HOT MINUTE~!! i didn't ask for this, i only made the best of it, and those who were light weight, unskilled, intolerant, overly demanding acquaintances, fell by the wayside,, guess what, they are still the same people, while I am not~!!
