Hi Annie ~ If you're afraid to tell your parents, how about talking to the counselors at school? They are trained to handle things like this, and would be happy to talk to you. If it's something they can't handle, they will refer you to a professional. But it's all confidential, so you wouldn't have to worry about the counselors at school telling anyone. Give it a try!
Now, if you need to be referred out, you WOULD have to tell your parents because they'd have to be the ones paying for the therapist. Are you on your parents insurance? Chances are good that their insurance would pay for this, but you'd have to ask them about it. But first, just talk to the school counselor where it's free! Then take it from there.
God bless and please keep us posted, ok? Our prayers are with you. Hugs, Lee
