Actually, I've never even thought about telling my dad, it was never an option in my head. But it's definitely something to think about doing...
He's a really scary man in a way to me, I've kind of put him on a pedestal (That I'm trying to take him down from, work in progress) and any shortcomings that I have I don't like him to know. I feel like if I tell him about it, he won't see it as an illness, but as either me being lazy or that something is wrong with me.

I did try medication once, but it made me extremely lethargic and I think that one time scared me away. It was definitely a problem during the time because I was still in school and I barely left my bed. I'm thinking about trying it again, but I have to wait until I visit the doctor on campus (It's free there )

Thank you for the advice!
