This issue of identity is difficult for me but I have come to terms that it is okay to live my life and if some of it needs to be hidden, it is okay, I don't need to share with everyone that I have a mental health condition. Just like I don't have to share with people that I have an addiction to sex and porn (I am comfortable sharing that here). I love myself and I want to be in recovery and not be wrapped up in stuff that will bring me down.
