He would probably say something like, "you know, mom, I really love you and all but there's something I need to talk about and I don't feel like I can talk to you about it, nothing personal and all but I really need to talk to someone professional about it."

I trust him to make that judgment. This is just my opinion.


Thank you so much for being so supportive. I really do appreciate it so much. I just sent an e-mail to my schools psychologist and hopefully we'll talk sometime next week and I can start talking to him about everything and just get things off my chest and maybe learn how to talk to someone about my feelings. I hope that it will work out there and I can start talking to him on a regular basics just to let things go and start to move one with my life. I'm not sure if he would tell my parents so were just going to wait and see and if he wants to hopefully we can talk about the best way for me or maybe us to talk to them.
Thank you so much for the advice :-)
