If anything has been happening to you then it is best that it is out in the open...truthfully, so that someone can help to get it stopped, or sorted out. If you are unsure about talking about it then is it possible that you can write it down and give that to the social worker, who can then ask you questions about what you have written....
Good Luck...

Since it will be both your first time of intrudution, I assume it will be very casual. You two will get aquanted with each other. Necessary paperwork will get filled out. Like info for your health insurance etc, your personal information.
Than an initial intake will be taking down like social history, life's history, educational history.
I think that will be all. Don't be nervous. As a Social Worker myself, I know this can be very threatening. Just be your self and relax. Good luck. The second appointment will be getting better.

Relax and tell the truth. The job of the social worker is to help you and your mother. In order to do that, she needs to know the truth. If you mom has done things she ought not do, the social worker will be able to help you both if you are truthful.

Tell the social worker the truth, that's the only way you'll get the help you need.

hospice probably wants to meet with you to figure out how you want to deal with your mother's final wishes. It's not rude, and unless your Mom has a health care proxy, as next of kin, you are probably the one who is going to have to make these decisions. Sorry, but at 23, you need to be more adult about this. It's tough, but you should do it.

There are only two things to remember for your meeting
1. Don't be afarid they are there to help as best they can and they cannot help what they do not know or understand.
2. Be honest if someting happened then give all the details if nothing happened then tell them that.
Good Luck and Be Brave it is not as hard as you think!

Get the social worker in a room alone with just you two, no matter what, and tell her EVERYTHING!

Tell the truth

Most likely, your social worker has heard it all, if not worse, just tell. Either way, it's not their place to judge you.
