Definitely. I had someone say that he chose to not be depressed instead of me blaming it on something else (my diagnosis). He thought I enjoyed being sick, as if it was a ploy to get attention. I don't think he had actual mood disorder, because I don't think bipolar can be cured from our willpower. Why do people have to be so mean?!
