Keeping a secret is like poison. Especially for a kid. Makes it hard to look people in the eye, especially as a sensitive child. Not that it's my fault that I'm bipolar, nor that it's such a bad thing necessarily, it's just there's stigma and prejudice, and yes, it can be a pain in the ass to deal with employees, friends, girlfriends, that are bp, etc....
Always terrified of being found out, rejected. Blackballed, made so miserable that you have to go get yourself another job, or whatever. Always putting walls up around you so people can't get in. Where most people work towards building relationships/network, I'm trying to hide and NOT know anyone.

There is almost always a percentage of people at every workplace that is traumatised, often with PTSD, from their own families who suffered from bipolar distorder and had trouble managing. The fear, gaslighting, mind games that many of these people lay on you is horrendous - laced with a psychosis of it's own.
