Crinn,
I have found in my experiences that when I "come out with it" as far as my condition that it brings about pitty and fear. Fear in people because they don't know how to handle my disease and they are also afraid of what it is that I may want from them. I hate to play the 20 questions game as well that often follows and the constant pounding of what can they do (CAUSE I JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT WILL HELP. IF I DID I WOULD HAVE BEEN DOING IT ALONG TIME AGO). I must say that the only place I have found it helpful is at work because it gives me alot more leeway for screwing up and not getting yelled at, they are more apt to just talk to me in a matter of fact way. So I would strongly recomend mentioning it to the boss in a side conversation and a by the way this is what I am going through type of way. I hope this has helped...L8R,
The Sourceror
