It's not stupid. There is such a stigma against any mental illness. I was dead set against ever even considering I might be bp until recently and I'm one of the most liberal accepting people when it comes to mental health. It seems to be getting better for things like add in kids, anxiety in adults. But the others, including depression, are still hush hush, no no. Which is dumb. It's like diabetes. You can't just makes your sugar lower. And you can't just stop having a mental illness.

But everyone who has answered has been right....if they recognize you, remember that they are here too!!
