finally did it by NotKyloRen
(TW: Personal post/Serious topics mentioned)
So, after all the stress and anxiety building up, I came home today and completely broke down. ( @One of my friends: After I commented on your picture, I broke down in the shower shortly after.)
So, finally, I did it. After getting out of the shower in a complete state of meltdown, I called my mother, and we talked about everything. My stress, my anxiety, my sadness, even... my suicidal thoughts. She listened to me, and she understood.

We talked about my symptoms and our family history with mental illnesses. As it turns out, my father had been diagnosed with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder many years ago, and what I'm experiencing is apparently very similar. We've decided that we're going to get me professionally tested for OCD.
She didn't overreact, she didn't play off my feelings. She... she really listened to me. She even told me certain things and said she is open if I feel like I need to talk to her in the future.
Honestly, I feel like a huge weight has been lifted. My stress is still here.. but at least this is a step in the right direction!
Thank you so much to all of you that have been here for me during my rough patches. You guys are incredible!
( @One of my friends: I didn't tell her, however, about that specific thing I told you... I've gotta work up the bravery to tell her that. But thank you so much for listening and understanding as well!)
