My two best friends are also, bipolar, so we support each other. I have a few other friends who know and are supportive, but when i had my hospitalization it changed the dynamic in some of my relationships, and people started to relate to me like i am sick or fragile. I had 2 other really close friends, one with bipolar and one without. I leaned on them quite a bit through my hospitalization and the couple months after. Unfortunately that pushed them away. One of them won't talk to me at all because he thinks i would destabilze him (which is unfair and sucks), and the other one returns my texts, but never wants to hang out. People don't always understand, but i'm grateful for the ones that do.
