sooooooo.
I've been depressed for the past like year and a half. I haven't told my parents yet, but i think my mom might suspect it. Well long story short, i think it would be advantageous to tell my parents because, i could go to the doctor, ect, ect. Anyway i am having trouble telling them, my mother would take it as "proof she's a bad parent" because she worries constantly that she didn't do a good job with me, [she did] and i really don't want her to blame herself.
So i was wondering if anyone else had come out to their parents about being depressed before and how you did it.
