I feel like I'm singing the same song, today, but tell them BP is like arthritis. You can treat it and be diligent, and try real hard, but you still get flare ups. No medicine cures it. The best it does is help maintain it at a decent level...but sometimes it still isn't enough.

It is your job to figure out what you need from your parents and tell them.

If you want them to hold you and hug you, tell them that, if you want them to buy you a punching bag and hang it in your bedroom, then tell them that.

You need to figure out what you need and want from them and tell them. That is what they are asking you for. Yes?
