I guess after 15+ years of friendship I thought I would get support not ridicule. I wish I never would have said anything. Meeting with my therapist this morning, hoping she can give me some insight. What has been y'all's experience with telling friends and loved ones?

Yeah, both the friends I told said diagnosis like this are a dime a dozen and that there's nothing wrong with me....

Okay...whatever...move on....and realize they have their opinions and I won't expect and support from them.
