Well... some of you may of seen my previous thread, where I said that I'd relapsed, after almost 2 and a half years... And how I was going to keep it a secret... Well it blew up in my face >.<

My boyfriend left me alone in his flat and went out when he found out, because he didn't know what to do, so he left me alone, and shortly after I left a note and called my parents and went home. It was horrible, my parents were trying to second guess what was wrong, and I realised, I have to tell them.

So yesterday I left a note, told my Dad to read it, and went out the house for a walk, I was walking around for about an hour, when my boyfriend phoned, and I didn't wanna go back home on my own, so he walked to where I was.
I got back home after being out for over 2 hours, I was so scared.

But my parents... They were absolutley fine, they phoned parent line and had some websites for me when I got back (I didn't even know parent line exsisted?!) And my mums going to phone around so I can see someone, and get professional help, as this self harm issue has been around for 6 years now, my parents had no clue, about it, quite an acheivement to hide something for so long...

So yeah I just wanted to say to everyone, that telling your parents really isn't that bad, I mean sure its weird as hell to hear self harming related questions come out of their mouths, but at the end of the day their your parents and they'll love you no matter what.

So never be afraid, and I wish you all the best xx

I am really glad that things worked out well, and its good to know you are getting help. I think you have a good message for people who are self-harming, that telling then may be very helpful. I do think that it is good to let your parents know so that they can make sure you get help!
