Hi Dee,

I only have one friend that knows I'm bulimic, I had suspected she was anorexic for years. I finally told her I was bulimic, and she opened up about anorexia. I know I can't talk about bulimia with anyone else, because they don't get it.

I talk about depression with a friend who has depression.

I have many other friends, but don't feel comfortable talking about what ails me with them.

I think your analogy about talking about work with co-workers and mental illness with others with mental illness is perfect.
