Update.

I did it.

I told my teacher, about everything.

And—on this Friday, I’m going to see a psychologist.

*victory dances*

For some reason— I feel slightly nervous and worried about it—I don’t know why, though.

I’m so happy for you! If only I could do what you did and tell someone

[Hidden in reply to Rain203]

Thank you! —and I’m rooting for you, I hope you can get the courage to do the same.

[Rain203 in reply to Hidden]

I hope so too

[Hidden in reply to Rain203]

Good!

Have hope. ♡

[Rain203]

You are so brave for doing this, I don’t know you but I’m proud anyway

[Hidden in reply to Rain203]

I appreciate your support!!! ♡

That's excellent. Great work!!

A smidge of courage is all you need to start snowballing in that right direction. And clearly you have oodles of courage

[Hidden in reply to Calm_mama]

Thank you.

Yes. It sure is. And I did. ♡

Good for you! You need not be afraid of the psychiatrist. Most are quite understanding and also, they have heard it all before.

[Hidden in reply to b1b1b1]

Thank you.

I’ll try not to be afraid— I don’t know why I am, I just am, I suppose.

That is great. You have overcome your biggest hurdle. It is natural to be a little nervous about the appointment but you will feel more comfortable as it goes on.

Just walk in and act like you own the place. 😊

[Hidden in reply to Marshall64]

Alright, I’ll try to.

And thank you. ♡

I’m so happy for you (and your courage) that I don’t know where to begin.

You are an EXCELLENT role model for others in your situation.

BRAVO!!!

[Hidden in reply to Lakewolf]

Thank you. Your words means a lot.

I’m flattered.

Your support means more than you know. ♡

[Lakewolf in reply to Hidden]

I do not flatter, btw. When praise is due, I give it...and in this situation, I am in awe of your courage.

If you knew me, you would know just how truly rare that is.

Maybe after it’s all over, in a few years time, talk to your guidance counsellor at school.

I think you would make an excellent peer counsellor. Don’t know if they have peer counsellors where you are, but US schools need them desperately.

[Hidden in reply to Lakewolf]

Ah, I see. Alright then.

And, well— perhaps, in a few years.

Whom knows?

Thank you for your words. ♡

[Lakewolf in reply to Hidden]

I speak what I perceive is the truth.

[Hidden in reply to Lakewolf]

Ah, well— that’s good.

XO Thinking of you.

[Hidden in reply to NatureRox]

Thank you.

I appreciate your support. ♡
