That is really the heart of my issue, the M.I. isn't something I should have to put a wall around. I have a very hard time acting symptom free and am tired to the point of endurance of trying to hide and excuses it. Its the color of my hair, its my hight, its color of my eyes. Its a part of me that I was bornwith that I can only attempt to maintain, not changge. I am getting very tired of treating it as if it weren't a topic for polite society.
I'm not trying to press anyone into the "open", but I'm tired of "setting bounderies" or basically gate keeping this information about myself. I'm not embaresed of it (well, sometimes I do embarassing things) but I'm just all out of motivation about what in essence feels like hiding it.
I promise I'm not trying to pick a fight or rile anything up. I just want to stop worry about being found out.
