 especially since my dad passed away nearly 4 years ago, i have had to try hard to be strong for my mom, as she has been really down and depressed, but im not really strong, and sometimes when im on my own, i brake down, and become sad, but i tend to get over it pretty quickly though!!!

    I know , in my case I'm a perfectionist and I can't stand the fact that I make mistakes, I want to appear succesful always. But as I always say it's healthy to break down when you are alone.

    Yah I can tell you always go back to your old self. Anyways how are you, if you even remember me. ^_^"Pretending to be strong is a difficult task to perform, so some kind of strength is needed. Even if that strength isnt noticed, its there. You seem to be trying to send a positive example to your mother and I guess, through time, you will begin to believe in that yourself. Well I wish you luck in everything and stay healthy!
