   Sari_noel replied to Sari_noel's topic in Psychiatric

   I really think I'm just going to give up trying to talk to my family about this. OMG, I didn't realize how stupid they can be. I know it's not nice to say this about your family but that's what they are being. The only thing I'm going to try is to...
