I feel like a weight has been lifted off of me, and im glad i finally opened up to him. He's been really understanding, and has talked to me a couple more times. I have not told my mom yet, but my dad told me that he could tell her for me in the future. But, thanks, to all of the people who have supported me. I probably wouldnt have done this without you guys.

Don't know you, but I'm proud of you anyway!

Emails and texts are a life-saver for me. If the email was the only way you could find to express yourself, then there's absolutely nothing wrong with it. I hope you get the help you need. Seriously...you should feel proud of yourself for reaching out...I've been hiding my problems for years and years and years, and all it does it get worse and worse.
