Not sure if this counts, but I finally built up the courage to talk to the group I am working on several projects with about my BP.
I felt that hiding it was hurting them as much (and the project) as it was hurting me to keep it from them and make excuses when I couldn't function.
I gave them a crash course talk on how it works, and that it doesn't make me, it's just a part of me. I even directed them to the PC BP faq if they wanted to get more understanding.
It feels like there's a weight lifted off of my chest and I am still feeling my hypo happy.
