@chocolate5lover welcome to this group. Here, we can find sympathetic voices, who are in or have been in the same place. Like others have commented, sometimes our own families see what they want, and cannot admit to someone close to them needing help. It might literally be "too close to home". My own family preferred to ignore things that needed to be addressed; eventually I had to learn to turn elsewhere for help. Now I cannot bring myself to open up to them, even simple daily pleasantries.

Gingerw.. I totally understand. I cannot bring anything up anymore. When I took them to the doctor, the doctor was not as open as she is with me. I almost went into a coma because my kids did not believe me when I told them call 911 I am so sick. I cannot believe it but 911 even thought I was over-reacting when they saw how my kids handled the situation. I was put in an off the main area room in ER and this is where I almost went into a coma. I remember my son and his wife asking the nurse could she really go into a coma. Nurse: YES. I don't tell them anything anymore. I will be ready for burial and they will refuse to bury me. If you just had a cold or something, they listen. BUT don't you dare bring up a life threatening thing mom... This has been the hardest thing for me to mention to anyone. It sounds like they don't love me. They DO But, I am creating an inconvenience.
