and just my own opinion on this...I think you should let your family see what you go through...show them your journal and don't hide them from the pain you have... They will never know what you are going through without you telling them and showing them (them seeing it for themselves)... If you are comfortable sharing with her the journal or anyone in your family then I would share that with her and/or them...explain that you hide what you can so as not to worry or upset them...and for God sakes DON'T EVER APOLOGIZE FOR YOUR PAIN!! This isn't your fault...But Nobody can know what you are going through if you keep hiding it from them... And some people don't seem to get the fact that if they don't see it ...well the pain must not really be their or be as bad as you say..that is b.s. plain and simple...so personally I would share it with them...Plus it will open the doors of communication..to educate them on Ch and pain etc... Keep us posted... Huggs Jackie L.
