I am really sorry you feel that way, if you can't "bleed" to your family than who can you to?? I did the same, my H is upset about it too. Oh well, I was taking care of me. It is what it is, and I can't do anything about that now!
However, that does not mean that you have to take any friends or families advice, Tell them to be a good friend you just need them to listen.
