I feel very uncomfortable typing any of this, or getting help from anyone, because again, even though it's something I know I'm wrong about, it's just ingrained in me not to talk about these things because it just bothers everyone else, I'm supposed to just smile and say 'I'm fine, how are you' and otherwise not talk to anyone about anything.[/SPOILER]
