Parents can be stupid sometimes

I love when people say “just talk with your parents about your mental illness, they’ll understand and they’ll be able to help you!”. 

Yesterday, I mentioned that one of my friends might be having a depression. You know what they said? “Oh, God, don’t you dare doing that to us too!” THAT was my mom’s reaction. And my stepfather just nodded and added “Please, we already have enough troubles!”

So I don’t know why, but no, I’m not really looking forward to have that conversation with them…
