I have a complicated disease
No one seems to understand
It causes lots of problems
and medication it demands
Some people think I'm crazy
Others think I'm weak
Very few look beyond it
to see that I'm unique
People make their judgments
before they ever know
They just go by what they see
On certain TV shows
I am only human
No matter what they say
If they knew the struggles I face
To make it through a day
This disease I have
definitely for real
Before you make your judgment
Consider how I feel
I may be more emotional
When my life seems a mess
If you truly love me
Why do you show it less?
I want to fight this openly
With all shame set aside
When I get the opportunity
I always run and hide
Next time you see someone, even on the street
Stop and think a minute before you go and speak
For you may be one of many causes
That makes that person weak
