It's really fucking hard. I seriously need to get help, but where would I even look? Last time I opened up to a psychologist caused some of the worst self-loathing I ever experienced, and got me close to ending it all. All I can do is to keep hiding.

Opening up is honestly the hardest part

When I opened up to my doctor recently about other things related to my mental health I was on the verge of tears and literaly cried in my car before I left (They just wouldn't fall in their office)

The best advice I can offer is to keep trying and to keep opening up

Thing do get better if you keep trying, it might suck for awhile but it will get better
