Not all of us want sympathy. For me it's freedom of what I been hiding all these years. I think of the slogan they have here in the US about silence about mental health/end stigma how can we when we are not able to talk about it with the risk of being the victim and looking for sympathy.
I can understand being very independent as well. It's what we learned as kids to survive what we were living through. Too bad my survive button is jammed stuck because its the only way I know how to live.
