Treated Differently?

TLDR: Treated Differently?
In the forum thread initiated by Lammchen, the main topic of discussion is how individuals are treated by others after revealing their mental health struggles. Lammchen expresses a personal stance, emphasizing the importance of treating people with the same respect as before they revealed their struggles, noting that the individual's core identity remains unchanged. The thread invites other users to reflect on and share their experiences or opinions on whether disclosure of mental health issues alters interpersonal dynamics.

After you've let people know about your mental health struggles, do they treat you differently?

When I hear or read about someone's problems, I try to remember that nothing has changed between our relationship. He/she is still that same person deserving of my respect.
