Thank you all for your encouragement! I was diagnosed 5 years ago. I take the medicine most of the time. Sometimes when I am doing well I get complacent and stop taking it. That usually ends badly. I have been married for 2 years and my husband just doesn't understand the illness. He mostly just tries to ignore it but then when that becomes impossible, he gets so frustrated. My boss doesn't understand either. And anytime I decide to trust and tell someone they look at me like I am an alien. I just feel like no one understands. I feel like I am just wandering through the world all alone.
