Im sorry you had to be exposed to such insensitivity, especially by your own support system. People are so ignorant when it comes to mental illness. We just have to take every opportunity we can to educate them.

I just went through it earlier this week at work with a social work intern no less. She was decorating the office for christmas and i was less than enthusiastic explaining how it was triggering me and I was still overwhelmed from our experience last year. She told me to "get over it". I got right up in her face and explained as calmly as i could that you NEVER tell a severly mentally ill person to "get over it" She apologized and explained that she just has a hard time seeing me as mentally ill.

I hope that your moods stabilize and you get to feeling better. Hugs
