Asking for help

I did something important today. I went to my mentor (at our schools we are divided into smaller groups and one of the teachers is the mentor of that group) and I told him about how I've been feeling. He is very supportive and told me he was glad I talked about it. I finally dared to tell my mom as well and she said she'll go to the doctor with me and see where it goes.

Honestly, in my head I thought they wouldn't understand and brush it off as "teenager problems". Luckily I was wrong. I now hope I'll get the help I need.

If you are procrastinating asking help like I was: please please please talk about it to someone. I haven't even gotten help yet and it's already such a relief.
