'You shouldn't be so open about your
mental illness’

Why? Because it may help me? It may
help others? It may help end the
stigma surrounding mental health? It
may make someone get care for
themselves?

GOD FORBID.

@jeffowski This is equivalent to the old 'you shouldn't be so open about being gay', or 'you shouldn't be so open about being a ganja smoker'. Even if it's motivated by genuine concern that we might be stigmatised, the criticism needs to target the people buying into the stigma. Not us for being who we.
