What to do when you can’t start a conversation? And how explain your problems to parents when the answers are the basics:
”You are sad? We are all sad sometimes.”
”You are tired? Well don’t stay up that late!”
I think I’m not only one with this.

(I am at the situation right now where I’m not doing great. I have a history of hallucinations and paranoid episodes. Short psychosis. And now I’m catatonic. My hands freeze in a weird position and I can't move. My parents and family members deeply think it’s caused by my neck but I know it’s not just a cramp. It takes my brains too.
It’s frustrating. I’m losing my will to want to see a doctor. I have no idea how to talk to them.)

I think its important to consider whether you need to explain things to your parents at all. Or if you need their seal of approval/validation/support in order to get well.

It may make sense to pull yourself and try to figure out the problem . I mean that very often we cheat yourself, do not want to ask for help, but what is all it about? Firstly, from a misunderstanding of the situation.Maybe you do not have frustration, but you think so because of self-hypnosis. Get examined by a doctor to keep calm and if you see that there are really problems, then declare it.
