I can't talk to my parents

[CrazyConfused]

One day I spent almost 6 hours on the computer looking up different mental disorders and seeing if I fit the description. My mom came and I closed the window quickly so she couldn't see. But she saw me close it. When she asked me what I was doing, I got defensive and nervous. I left and went to my room. A few minutes later she calls me too her room. She wants to talk she says. She shows me the computer screen and its the history of sites I have been on. I remember my heart beating so fast it almost hurt. And I was shaking. What is this? she asks. But I can't say anything. I stutter and avoid eye contact. For about half an hour she tries to get me to talk to her. She threatned that if I didn't talk, she would take me to my sisters therapist.

I know I won't talk. I won't talk to the shrink. I'm too afraid of what they will think.

I've only talked to one person. Her name was kelsey and within a week of meeting her I had told her everything. She had told me evrything. And we could relate to practicaly everything. She has been diagnosed with ADHD, ADD, OCD, and Asperger's Syndrom.....

Is that normal? and is it normal to be completely convinced that something is wrong mentally?

How can I talk?

Something is wrong I know it.

If you feel something is wrong then seeing a therapist is a great idea. You may even want to book an appointment with your doctor for a physical to ensure everything is ok on that end.

Your doctor is the only one who can make diagnoses. If they feel something is up they are the ones that can give you the proper referrals. I know your scared but it is worth talking to someone about your concerns.

We are here for support too. Let us know how it works out.

Thank you so much. I know that is what I should do, but i can't and that's the problem.

Can you make an appointment with your doctor? At least making the appoitment will be a step in the right direction.

How about a youth drop-in Centre? Guidance Counsellor?

What area are you in? - maybe we can help you with some referrals.

I am also giving you the link to the main page of Kids Help Phone They are really good.

Maybe this may be a place to start.

I live in Fredericton, New Brunswick.

No guidance counselor, as far as I am aware of...

Thank you for the kids help phone link, i never even thought of that.

What's a youth drop-in center?

Thank you so much again! :thankyou2:

Your most welcome.

I was thinking something like this - YMCA - Wellness - Teen

I will see what else there is in your area. A guidance counselor can be found in your school. You can even talk to the school nurse.

At some point your parents will probably need to be brought in to the loop so to speak - but that is down the road a bit. I really do urge you to talk to an adult that you trust.

Maybe someone else around here may have a few more ideas.
