My husband, my parents, my son, and my step-daughter are the only ones who know about my bipolar diagnosis.

Which by the way, I found out today via paper work that needed signing, that my doc changed my diagnosis from bp2 to bp1 for some reason. I don't know why but it made me freak out a little.

Anyway, the hubs is also the only other person that knows about the borderline traits and the cutting.

Do I feel shame? Maybe but I think it's more so not wanting to be stigmatized by ignorant people. I'm a very private person anyways so it's literally never come up in conversations with associates of mine.
