One of my biggest fears. I work as a white collar paraprofessional in the legal field. I feel like being outed would end my career. One irony, my work tangentially involves mental health probate, so I really have anxiety pangs when I hear things about clients with MH issues. Would they feel the same about me if they knew? I was pretty good at covering up what was really going on last year. People took my anxiety attacks, vomiting and anorexia for a stomach condition.

My observation - many Americans are not kind towards people with MH issues, and the media whips up a frenzy when we have these mass shootings.
