I can see how you would be sensitive about being judged, it sounds like you were treated harshly. If I were you I think I would just not try to make a decision just yet. Maybe give it some thought and make a list of the pros and cons.

I know I have spoke out about being bipolar and have had mixed reactions. Some supportive and some just distancing themselves from me. I've been lucky and haven't been confronted harshly but we take the chance of being judged when we open up. Just make sure you have yourself in a strong place so that if your openness is met with hostility or other negative feedback that you are prepared for it and that it not bring you down.

Congratulations on finishing your monitoring and other stipulations.
