This thing called 'life' is a personal journey and we each experience it differently. However, I also chose to be open about my condition(s) and whilst I know I am doing a great service to society it has also ruined my career and been the result of denied opportunities.
It's a bit too late to take it back so I stand by my decision to be visible in the hope that one day we will be able to beat down the stigma. In the meantime, all donations will be gratefully received!!!!
