Boy are you asking the wrong person... I find I'm not nearly as trusting as I once was. Probably comes from all the lies my ex told when he was having an affair behind my back. Anyway, my son is 13, so I haven't faced any of this yet. But I can tell you that I have a suspicious nature, so if I was in your parents shoes, you'd have to PROVE to me that you weren't doing drugs, and after you proved yourself for a period of time, the trust would start coming back.

I STRONGLY disagree with not telling your doctor about this. For your doctor to be able to help you, he needs to be aware of everything that's going on with you. Why doesn't she want him to know? If I were you, I'd tell the doctor and ask for help with this. Just a suggestion. This may be something that you can't overcome by yourself.

Why don't you sit your parents down and be open and honest with them...tell them that you want their trust, their support and understanding and most of all help with this? Tell them what you told us, that you know you're going to disappoint them, not because you want to, but because you need help. They're your parents...and I can tell you this; parents want what's best for their children. They love you and nothing you do can change that. I truly hope that whatever happens with my son, even if it's something really bad, he'll feel like he can talk to me about it, and even though it might be difficult to hear and I might be disappointed, I'll try my best to help him. That's what parents do. Let your parents in...and let them help you.

Take care,
Sandy

Take care,
Sandy
