A few of the people that I've opened to about my illness have switched up or became avoidant of me, even a "friend" I supported that was bullied for being openly gay in high school stopped talking to me after I told him. At work, I've heard a person talking about his neighbor with schizophrenia, calling her "$tupid" and a "p$ychotic b!tch" and trying to 3 0 2 her out of the neighbourhood. I can't even feel comfortable to confide to people about anything anymore. It's such a shame this is our toxic world we live in.
