That is my experience, too. Part of the reason, though, is because I don't talk much about myself due to shame and because I deeply fear being completely misunderstood. After all, not many people are well-educated about mental illness. I have found that I am comfortable with others who have mental illness. It's the neurotypicals with whom I feel miserably uncomfortable.
