@slarson14 @gingerw totally agree that not everyone needs to know. I do not share this at work for example. And there are certainly friends that I can do without, I don’t need judgemental people in my life. However it gets awkward making excuses about appointments, masking my symptoms, or just feeling totally inauthentic. Even though I’m not close with my family, it feels weird not sharing something that feels very central to my life. I don’t know other people with this disorder so I often feel like I’m hiding this secret all alone.
