@Maree72 I've found my skin has become a bit thicker and my tongue considerably sharper since my first diagnosis in 2006.
One thing that I have learnt; most people have some pretty well established factory settings. As do I..
They don't suddenly develop helpful filters or behaviours because your circumstances have changed.
The folk you liked and trusted before might need some time to adjust. I can forgive clumsiness from those whom I know have good hearts but don't know quite what to say or do.
Other greedier more self focussed individuals--who you might previously have tolerated because of their entertainment value--can be cut loose. You don't have to do much to get rid of them, just ignore them. They won't have any interest in you if you don't give them what they want.
Hang in there. Mxx
