It sure is lonely at the top. Especially now in a world that feels so increasingly hostile. I feel like everyone hates me. I didn't feel this way before I was diagnosed. Even social workers and health care professionals have started to bully me. Is it the label? I'm still the same person!

Yes, you are the same person. I think it the result of "anger politics." Not only has politics been very bad in the past year, but it still continues after the election. Social workers are worried about their jobs, and this anxiety carries over into how well they can interact on a professional level.
