Wow. Just wow... that must have taken a lot of courage to share those thoughts with your family! You are stronger than you think! SH shouldn't be a secret, and you shouldn't have to go through things alone... I am in awe that you were able to reach out, and I hope that you get the support and love that you deserve.
