I have people who always put me down and take my intrusive thoughts as me being a sick person. They also think poorly of me and are really unkind and judgemental.

I have the same issue, friends and family. They treat me different and judge me for my mental illness. They even say I will always be here for you when they really aren’t.
It sucks and really hurts but we shouldn’t allow it to defeat us. We want people in our lives that don’t deserve us because even though we have this one set back we do give a lot to this world.
So don’t let these judgemental haters bring you down use them as a motivation to pick yourself up and do inspirational things!
I know you can and I believe in you!

My family can be cruel and I have a severe diagnosis then my sister but she says what’s wrong with you? Duh like I have a choice to have mental illness. She says I need to grow up and do something.

I know what you mean. Those around me think poorly of me, but you shouldn’t let it get to you. With time you’ll learn it really doesn’t matter what they think.

Down at the gym, a friend was remarking that I have come a long way. That felt good even though it hurt when she said of my past that I was a “real mess”. At least it is all in the past .
People like to tell me I’m horrible and ■■■■■■up. I have 2 of the most misunderstood diagnoses and the amount of uneducated ■■■■I get for them is astounding.
I wish people would just ask me questions and try to learn about My conditions instead of just writing me off as a freak or a psycho or someone that’s just seriously ■■■■■■up.
I’m sick of the judgement

I don’t think I have had people say terrible things to me. But when I was attending Church I was kind of shunned by most people in my age group, I think because I didn’t have a job and a wife and kids. It’s not as if I could tell them why. When I say shunned, I mean that they were nice to me and talked to me inside the Church walls. But once outside excepting Facebook, almost none of them wanted to be around me.
The few friends I did have stopped wanting to have anything to do with me once they got decent paying jobs.

Sometimes I have the same feeling , and trust me when you have a mental illness on a country where most of the grown people have a “close mind” is worst , but you have to learn that it is part of this illness, you must ignore them and that is it , say inside your mind “Fu#!” Them
