<div class="ExternalClass19119EF710434C2E913F1D64BE9C8673"><p>I'm scared to talk to my parents. Things haven't been the best in school. I'm scared to tell them because they'll be upset with me.. I plan to fix things. This isn't the first time this has happened. I've been putting off seeking help because I thought I would get over my fear to talk to them, but things are only getting worse. At this point, I don't know how much more of this I can handle.<br></p></div>
