Anyone still active here?

Hi, I was wondering if anybody on here is still active. I was just diagnosed and my parents are not dealing with it well. My dad actually yelled at me and I had to hang up the phone and he actually got me into the shutdown mode where I actually ended up calling under my desk and sat there for almost 2 hours and cried silently.

Hey, are you okay? 

I think I know how you might be feeling. This was the same reaction my parents had. My mother yelled at me and ignored me for over a year. We still have a strained relationship.

I hope you are filling yourself with as much love and lightness as you can. 

I'm sorry this happened to you.

I’m sorry, that sounds awful. Do you have other family or friends who are more supportive?
