But I suggest you consider opening up to your parents completely about all the issues you bring up here on GYE and your life. If you need therapy then communicate with them.


To some degree I have, but judging from past experience that is not productive at all.

The past?

How did you get to the therapist you saw before? Not with their help?

This one with their. Yes, there are many things for which I am grateful to them -- they support me.

In many ways my life is better then that of a prisoner in Scandinavia -- they do not have Internet. But the best prison is still a prison.

I do love my parents and I faithfully take care of my grandmother -- it is my sacred duty and mitzva. But I can not share too much with someone who takes away my freedom.

Will they take you to a therapist, or not?

Thank you very much. I hope I can keep up and ascend to a different level of understanding.
