A friend of mine called today and was one of the ones I haven't told and so went through the "are you sitting down" sort of preamble before explaining where I am and so on.
Anyway, it was funny because I did get an ear hole bashing for "trivialising my condition". Well that told me I suppose :-) He felt that I wasn't paying enough attention to getting well after the latest episodes and that rushing to get back to normality were secondary to getting well in the first place.
I hope that tomorrow I don't upset too many people - I won't have any friends left at this rate :-)
