While my ex-wife is supportive of my issues, she still makes snide remarks about them and mental illnesses in general when she is angry or thinks its just an excuse.
Some people just don't get some things...so don't lose a friend over it (unless you think you really SHOULD) and you can vent or share with us instead!
I don't talk to many people about it, just the ones who are on meds of their own! Then we talk the talk, know what i mean?
Sorry about your friends laughter...insensitive to say the least...but don't let it get you down...we love you!
