hey guys!! i know you all have your problems and i dont want to make you solve mine, but how can i feel better? like the only things i feel are sadness and anger. for almost a year i cry and cry. with my dad i dont really talk abt my feelings and i feel like my mom makes my emotions invalid(i think this is the right word). do you have any tips? and how can i tell my mom that im doing bad and maybe that i should go to a therapist?

Just walk up and talk to her and ask! I know it’s hard to do, but I think it’s always a good first step for anybody who wants to start getting some sport if that sounds really hard. Try writing it out on a piece of paper and then just walk up to and say hi have something to talk to you about and write out exactly what you wanna say and read it. Just see how she reacts and go from there.

And it’s funny that you say I know you have your problems and I don’t want to make you solve mine, that’s exactly why we’re here! To solve each other problems my guess is maybe you invalidate your feelings or have difficulty expressing your needs because of the way that your parents have treated you when you’ve done that in the past know that it’s OK to ask for things and it’s OK to be the focus. It’s OK to share your emotions.
