I know exactly how you feel.
My mom throws the term "bipolar" around when saying that people are crazy or had. It hurts everytime.
I told my mom a week after I had been diagnosed and she is in denial. Everyone thinks that I am lying or discussing it for my own attention when it was a doctor that told me.
My therapist is also not on bourd. He doesn't really show interest in it.
I always say that coming out bipolar was much harder than coming out gay because of the stigma and ignorance on the topic.
