Good news and as you rightly say it isn't easy to open up and ask for help. There is help out there and never be embarassed to ask for it as you are not alone. Todays society is peppered with all sorts of personal problems and most of us suffer in some way and deal with it differently. Some are strong and hide it well, some not so. This is where you need good friends and a strong family, it also helps to talk openly, that in itself is a big step forward. You'll be fine as along as you acknowledge it.
Group hug!
