I want to tell my parents about my problems but they're busy with other problems?

Ok, well, I'm having some bad personal issues and I think I need some help/someone to talk to, but I don't want to tell my parents, because they're already worrying about so much, like my brother in rehab, and my dog that needs surgery (she might not make it) and I feel selfish for feeling the way I do. These issues are seriously causing me a lot of stress and pain, but I don't even know if I should tell them. My mom is already particularly stressed. So, should I? If yes, how? Thanks in advance.

    You are just as important as your brother and more important than a dog. Your parents are there to help you. Sit down with them and talk it over.

    get your priorities straight. put the dog down, it's the only humane thing to do if you cant' afford surgery.
