My family is white... it wasn't so much as hush hush... it was more of my mom complaining on how taking me to these appointments was an inconveniences to her. She basically said one day that if anyone needed to go to counseling it is her.
Then there's my ex boyfriends family who is Hispanic. They were more accepting of my mental illness and did stuff to help me get the help that I needed. Then again my ex boyfriend suffers from depression and anxiety and his father basically said, "what do you got to be depressed and anxious about?"
