I usually don't give a damn what people think about what I do or say something either, verne. It's afterwards that I wake up at 3 am thinking, "What a moron I was for saying that." When I look back on some of my posts, I say the same thing - I just don't wake up at 3 am over anything I've said on PB.
Also, I actually have come out a few times about my Bipolar I dx and most people seem surprised, then sympathetic, and then treat me like before. Makes me wonder if I have to be so selective in who I tell. I just wish the world were like here where I can shout, "I AM BIPOLAR!" and everyone says dispassionately, "OK, I'm happy for you."
My thinking is though that some here may not want to shout, "I'M DEPRESSED AND CAN'T GET IT UP ANYMORE, WHAT DO I DO?" Others may be unable to whisper, "I tried Viagra and it worked great for me." It was a thought anyway.
