I have always had trouble asking for help. I've felt that I should be able to do everything myself and asking for help makes me weak. Now I'm getting past that and asking my family for help when I'm at a point that I just can't do something. That's a lot of progress for me.

As to talking about when I'm feeling mentally bad and letting others know what's going on in my head...that's still a work in progress. Very little progress right now. Although my family knows that something's wrong with me and respond by keeping a closer eye on me and keeping physically close to me. I still have so much trouble expressing myself (verbally) to anyone about how I feel.
