I think I was offended ONLY by what you're psychiatrist said, NOT what anyone here has said or written.

I am sensitive to it because when I was sick and very young, and no one knew what was going on, my mom would say, "Don't talk like that. People will think you're crazy." When I was only saying what I felt and thought and experienced in my illnesses.It hurt so much, I vowed that no one would ever know I was "crazy" like my mom thought I was. I tried so hard to fit in and be "normal" that I guess the whole subject is so sensitive to me. I still have to deal with that I guess.
