I'm trying to get the nerve to tell my mom about my depression. But I'm scared..... Ever since I've been reading about depression and its causes it seems so much more real and in my face now. Like before I used to think that i could just shake it off and feel better.... I see now with a different set of eyes. I know I have to tell her because this is a life or death situation..... Either I open my mouth..... Or I die. Bottom line. I'm just scared that she's gonna think I'm lying.....and then I'll have no other choice but to prove to her one time that I was telling the truth. And it would be all over. Too late. :..(
