Yes! My parents kept trying to get the doctors to tell them I was bipolar. They said I had depression from my relationship with my mother. I am so glad you have the courage to say all this in an open forum. I am a blogger too but my blog is focused on a very specific subject and I am way too scared to write so openly. I used to and it got bad. At this point I have cut my sisters from my life. My parents and I are mostly estranged too.
