In your admission essay, Be honest if that honesty involves a personal issue than write it. Be be mindful that more than one person will read this. The last week i have just completed a paper about women rights russia, it was really a nice experience to me. I worked in the graduate admission office at major University and I have seen and in some cases heard it all.
Have a good day
