My family doesn't know, they'd never understand, so I've never mentioned it.


It was no problem sharing my BP dx though, so I just allow them to think its all BP related.


Only PC, my psych team and bf knows I have BPD dx as well.


I don't trust anyone outside of that group with this DX, not because I'm ashamed or afraid of stigma, I just don't trust anyone else to not be invalidating.


I'm sorry you didn't get the response you needed, maybe you subconsciously anticipated it,which explains why you don't trust her.
