I've made a really big mistake. One of my good good friends has many admirable traits but has loose lips. We know some of the same people at my workplace, which limits the depth of mental information I can share with her.

She knows I have depression and take buproprion. She knows that I take a lamotrogine. (I accidentally told her.) Now she knows I took an antipsychotic because I ended up in the ER twice and I wanted to tell her and I wanted sympathy. I think I accidentally told her the name of the antipsychotic. See what happens when a person can't be fully honest! It's hard to keep track of what you've said. I feel so stupid.

I don't want my coworkers to know I have bipolar disorder. What can I do? I feel so stupid for ever opening up to her and accidentally telling her stuff.

I don't want to stop being friends though because she brightens my life in so many ways. My therapist says we might have friends who we don't share deep stuff but we travel together. On the other hand, I have another friend who I can tell anything.
