That's why I can't tell anyone. Because I'd feel like burden telling them.

I understand that feeling but please know your not a burden, talk to someone and get some help. It's very important.

Hi The Fox & the Hound, if you're talking to someone caring (and there will be people out there who care) then the last thing they are going to see you as is a burden!!!!
In fact there are going to be plenty of people who will feel grateful that you're opening up about the way you feel to them, so as they can help/support you with that.
So please find someone to tell.........parent, doctor, school counselor............you have done so well telling us some of what you're going through, we care and so will others too. You deserve support with what you're going through. You are not a burden.

Well you did tell one person you said. That was a big step.

I guarantee telling your T is not a burden. Not in the least little bit.

I agree with you Fox. I feel like a burden as well.
It's part of the mental state that makes you see just the "cons".
Try making a pros and cons list of telling someone how you feel.
It's a mental exercise to force your brain to think the way it doesn't want to.

You can't be a burden to someone who cares, and if you still feel that way, try telling someone you pay. It's their job to listen.
