I've heard that example used so many times, that if you were diabetic you wouldn't not take insulin because you think your body should be able to make enough itself, etc. Its just so hard for me to really accept that its okay for me to need help. That I don't always have to be the good, perfect, strong one. I never even cried at any 3 of my grandparent's funerals over the past 3 years because I', supposed to be the strong one who holds it together when everyone else falls apart. All my family just thinks I'm tough/cold hearted because I don't cry in front of them.
The college I'm at now just works to help set you up with a proffesional, they don't actually have a counseling center. The college I'll be at next year does, but thats a year away.
