Hi, you need to be able to start telling those that need to know about your problem. I know it's embarrassing, I hid it for many years myself, but once you are able to talk to someone else, ie, a family member, a doctor, or a very close friend, the secrecy part of our condition can no longer control you. It is the first important part of the recovery process.
