Thanks, I do feel pretty lucky. I know that I probably wouldn't have been able to be so open about my mental illness if I wasn't working in this special kind of environment. Telling my boss (and I just told my co-worker/supervisor on Friday! She was also understanding and wonderful) has really given me courage to be more open about it. I think I am going to tell one of my friends I have been hiding this from sometime this week. I'm sure I will run into stigma somewhere, but right now I feel willing to take the chance. It feels good to just be myself. Thanks for the support everyone.
