I have a professor at school who seems like she really cares about me and is trustworthy. She is the only person that knows about my depression and has been really nice to me. I have had a lot of trouble connecting with people lately, but I feel like she understands me and I feel connected to her. I want to be able to tell her things. I really don't have anyone to talk to. I scheduled a meeting with her in order to talk about what I want to do with my life. I want to be able to tell her how I'm feeling but I'm afraid she will tell someone. I don't have a plan, but I've been thinking a lot about hurting myself. I don't want to put her in an uncomfortable position, I just wish I could talk to someone about it without them having to judge me or freak out and force me to go to the counseling center. If I go to the counseling center, I know they will tell my parents and I don't want them to find out about this.

What do you think I should do?
