I tend to make a joke out of it, partly defence admittedly, but it does make it easier in a way and I often refer to myself as crazy. I'd rather people knew I was a sandwich short of a picnic, that the cheese has well and truly slid off my cracker, than assume I'd never had a problem only for them to discover otherwise elsewhere.
You'll be fine

Haha! Loved the way you worded that. It's just that so many people don't understand mental illness. They think you're just sad and you will snap out of it. Others do not believe in medication. They think it is just masking the problem. Also, didn't think of this. I am unemployable so I can't work. That turns people off too. I am however financially secure as I get VA disability so I wouldn't be mooching off them or anything. Sometimes I feel worthless because I no longer have a career. I will just have to find someone that is understanding when the time comes! Thanks for the advice
