I’m sorry you feel paranoid. It’s hard to have your private struggle made public even if they are being supportive. I know I’d feel uncomfortable. At my last job, I let my boss read my daughter’s neuropsych report to help me understand it better. Later, I realized part of the narrative was that I have bipolar. She never said anything, but I felt really exposed.
