Ms. Beans, I am sorry you are in such a difficult situation. I know it is hard not to have the support of your parents when it comes to mental issues. My parents don't deny it, it is just not discussed (other then I have been told if I pray earnestly I will be healed ). I guess I have learned to just accept that they are not part of my support system. I know they love me, but they will never understand even though I tried to give them literature when I was first dx.

I just want you to know you are not alone. If anything you have us, which sometimes is the closest thing I have to understanding and support. I know it is hard, but maybe your mom can't wrap her mind around it. I have found some things are best left unsaid to most ppl.
