It depends on what you feel comfortable with. I was really afraid to tell my mum but it turned out to be a good thing for me and brought us closer together. She then told me that she, her mum and her had have all experienced mental health issues, something i had not been aware of. I always new there was mental health on my dads side but finding out its on my mums side too made me think wow it prob is not my fault, i was bound to get it. My family understand me better now that they no. They understand that i have real phobias so now they realise that in the past when i was being reclusive or unsociable i wasnt being ignorant i had geniune reasons. So i guess yes she forgives me for all the petty things she had been angry about before.
