    It’s interesting to me some of the relationships people have with their parents. I love my mom, but I don’t think I could ever tell her I was struggling. I never really have I don’t think.

    Recently my job threatened to fire me, my friend abandoned me, and then I had to go on FMLA for mental health reasons as a result. Never told her a word.

    Me as a young kid:

    I feel sad and I don’t know why.

    My mom:

    You’re just tired, you don’t have a reason to be sad.

    Start with finding a therapist, theyll be able to guide you. Your support doesnt need to related to you either. A trusted friend to talk about what youre feeling can be the pressure release valve to get through another week
