Dear Confused Teen,

Wonderful and compassionate discussion above. So very proud of all the responses! Your parents may be shocked, Mom may cry, I believe they want to see you truly happy, no more lies, no more secrets. You are bringing out the truth - you are having difficulty coping w/ life's obstacles & need their help. College will be one of the most stressful times in your life. You are *not* a failure you need some help & that is ok. You are brave, & courageous.

You are *not* responsible for other ppl's (your parents or anyone else's) reactions. You have *no* control over how they will accept this news. I think maybe that is why you are so scared. Plz remember this. Let us know how everything goes. Plz PM me anytime.

In My Thoughts & Prayers,
Holmes
Thanks for this!
