An offshoot from Gim's discussion

[The People]

Gim introduced self on WW and a long discussion ensued. They posted about a conference that I would love to attend. Sponsor me anyone?? Kidding... a bit.

Anyway, I get frustrated on Facebook and other health pages that people talk about every issue under the sun. except for ours. Not on mental health pages, invisible disability pages or Facebook. They talk about bi-polar and autism and they talk about child *b*se but never about what happens t the children when they grew up.

So I took the bull by the horns. Sorta. I explained that I knew many people with the condition (which is true IRL as well as here) Stats are potentially 1/100 same as schizophrenia. Yet the only time it is "discussed" is on shows like criminal minds where they all have a psychopathic alter.

One person hit like on Facebook and nobody commented. That one person was my T of many years ago.

I left a comment under that saying something like "just as I expected." Still no comment. Nobody wants to know about us. Well, hopefully at least a few people watched the video even if they didn't acknowledge it. And I really would love to be going to the conference.

I would be very nervous too I'm but it is such a relief to be some place where one can meet like minded peoples.
