I understand about not wanting other people to worry but sometimes we have to be honest about where we are in our thinking. I just got out of the hospital a couple of months ago and contribute it to not being honest with my family or my doctor. It took me a week in the hospital before I called my daughter and let her know where I was because I didn't want her to worry.

There was good reason for everyone to worry and keep there eyes one me. If I had been honest sooner I might have avoided the hospital visit. They could have adjusted my meds during outpatient.

Please be honest with your family. They can help you. And especially be honest with your doctor.
