I'm the complete opposite of this. I feel terrible guilt about other people having to deal with my illness so I tend to bottle it up inside all the time, which I know isn't good for me. Very few people even know about my Dx. I prefer to keep a facade up and I'm pretty good at it. Usually people have no idea about the war raging in my head. One day this is really going to screw me over. I think it's good to talk to people about it (even if I can't take my own advise) Journaling might be good for you too. I've tried doing that but I get paranoid about having my thoughts written down where someone might find them.
