You did a GREAT job at doing your self care! I'm totally impressed at how you looked at everything before you went and did what was needed to keep yourself safe. Your mindfulness was awesome too while at the party.

We can't expect people to understand things that they don't know about. If they aren't told the truth, they will assume or think that what you have blamed for your instability is the only thing that is still affecting you and wondering why. Of course their comments sting, but we have to understand that they are without the facts and reasons for our issues. It's not their fault, they aren't mind readers right?

Of course it's completely up to you who you disclose your issues to and who you don't. I'm just glad you were able to successfully go to the party and be safe the whole time!
