Whatever you decide to do, I wish you luck. As far as I'm concerned, though, he is the one who has lost. Not only has he lost a good and obviously kind and caring friend, but he has also lost someone's respect. And, as far as the exploitation thing goes, anyone who thinks it is funny and amusing to cause someone emotional distress and call it a joke, is the exploitable one. Remember the little boy who cried wolf?

I also know what you mean about not wanting people at work to know about your mental illness and your triggers. I am the same way, even though a number of my colleagues have talked openly to me about their own struggles and their need to be on medication. I talked to my pdoc about that, and he said that I would be surprised about how many people have been through it and are still going through it. He said the person in the office next to mine could be suffering and I may never even know it. I guess we just never know. Nevertheless, like you, I prefer not to share that aspect of my life with my co-workers.

I know what you mean about the Simpsons. Funny, though, as dysfunctional as they are, they really seem to be a close knit family (even if it is only animination).

Take care, and good luck.
