Hey :)
I want some advice on how to ask my parents to go to the doctor's about GAD as I would like confirmation from a medical professional as to whether I do or don't have it. The problem is, I'm am terrified about telling my parents :(
They are the kind of parents who would say: "You don't need to go to the doctor's, you're just stressed from school" or something to that effect.
I can go to the doctor's on my own, but I don't know if they have to tell my parents about stuff like this.
So yeah, some general advice on how to tell them I want to go, how to stop them dismissing me or how to actually approach the doctor about it, if I eventually go.
By the way, I'm 16 and I live in England, if that helps.
Thanks!
