basicaly, I've been having a tough time because of my HA for a couple of weeks. As I mentioned in other threads, I went to a GP, started anti-ds and got referred to CBT. One of my problems now is whether to tell my parents about it or not.
Here's some background: I'm 19, student, my parents live abroad (or actually it is me who's living abroad, but I consider the UK 'home' now). I have MS, which I suppose has been triggering HA. They know about my health worries, because it had started before I moved out, although it was never that hard.
The thing is, they are visiting me in exactly two weeks and I have no idea whether I should tell them about my problems. On the one hand it would be great to have their support, but on the other I know that once they're back in my homecountry they'll worry a lot about me. And I don't want them to do so, because I think that my MS is enough for them. But on the other hand, I know that I may not be able to deal with HA on my own (apart from CBT)...
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
