A...Doesn't change the fact you're awesome.<br /><br />Also, as one roommate years ago pointed out, "KD, the people you get on with best are either certified or certifiable. What does that say about YOU?" and yes, she was diagnosed what was then called Multiple Personality Disorder, talking about one of my closest friends who had just told us he was bipolar (and had been hospitalized several times during manic episodes.)<br /><br />So yeah. Not scared off. :) *hug*KD Sargehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07331721898295889961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8213823657588992919.post-76083070710761560842012-09-30T09:00:50.457-07:002012-09-30T09:00:50.457-07:00That's terribly sad that anyone would judge so...That's terribly sad that anyone would judge someone with any type of illness, mental or otherwise. And especially sad that anyone would turn away from a friend who has an illness of any kind. They aren't true friends if they could do such a thing. <br /><br />I've known people who were bi-polar and for someone who is to understand that they need medication and can't do it on their own is a wonderful thing that no one should ever discourage. I've seen terrible things happen when people stop taking their medication, or can't get their medication right. I love how you put it, understanding and education on these illnesses is so important. That is the best gift we can give each other, and one we owe to those we love and care about who have such illnesses. <br /><br />(((hugs))) for all you've been through and for having the strength to talk about it.

And I did study this, so I hope I can make some kind of a difference.<br /><br />It sucks that you lost a friend over this. Really. I'll be here if you need another one. :) L.M.
