It doesn't matter whether your parents want you to be there or not, It's whether you need or want the help, and it sounds to me like you do. I used to be just like you (my psych still calls me difficult all the time) and it took a stupid number of sessions before I managed to open up. I think the thing that worried me most was 1. sounding ridiculous and 2.having absolutely no idea of how to talk about my problems. The first time, I spent a couple of days practising what I was going to say, so when I got there I couldn't chicken out. After that he asked questions about what I'd said, and I found it easier to respond. Maybe start with one or two word answers, and try and build on it. How long have you been seeing him? Just remember that he is there to help you, and he is clearly trying to do so. He will understand anything you have to say, and it might be just what you need. *hug*
