I know how painful it is to be unheard and misunderstood. I swear alot of my adult "impairments" stem from living that reality during adolescence and early adulthood. Huge example, I was smart enough to know my issues weren't just teenage issues, I had close friends and none of them dealt with the shyt that I did...
My mom decided that I was a drama queen and pdocs are witch drs making the world a sicker place and she didnt listen to a word any dr said. It was very validating to be dxd bipolar and bpd as an adult.
Anyway, it not about me and I dont mean to make it so, I just want you to know that on some level I do get it.
