Finding help through an article is a great place to start, but to find true healing, you need to talk to someone. Although friends can be encouraging, a trusted adult provides valuable perspective that can be extremely helpful in a difficult situation. If you’re not sure which adult to turn to, your school counselor or Campus Life Director is a great place to start.
