Privately thinking you’re better than other people is your business. “making it clear” to the people around you that you look down on them is rude and potentially hurtful? Telling people you think you’re better than them is an action? How is this confusing?

Ohhhhhhhh, so my value as a human being depends on never ever talking about my mental illness in any capacity. Got it.

It’s not “confusing,” it’s expected; it’s just a really fucking shitty way to treat people.
