i am so pissed off :/

i am officially labelled as an attention seeker by most of my "friends". mainly because of my self-harm. i never did it for the attention, but when i finally told them about it, they just stared at me. i overheard them talking a few days ago, and they said, "i wouldn't be surprised if she's still cutting and looking for attention," and "come on, its georgia, why would she do that if she wasn't looking for attention."

I got so pissed off its unbeleivable :mad::mad:

i dont think i'm an attention seeker, because when i did it, i didnt want anyone to know about it, and the only reason i told then was because i was absolutely desperate for help, which they did not give me. i never planned to hurt myself, and i never planned to feel like crap, so why the hell do people think i am :mad:

sorry, a bit of a rant.

Did you tell your siblings and or parents of your situation?

Because, if not friends, then it is up to your blood that will help you.

i told my dad when i used to do it, but he wasn't any help, he just shouted, but the phsyciatrist i used to see was.

i stopped ages ago, but i've kind of started thinking about it, and i did it once or twice again, but nowhere near as badly as i used to, and when i asked my friends to help, thats when they went all "i bet she's cutting for attention again" on me.

sorry if that wasn't clear :whoops:

Well, you can resist your self.

Tell some one else, may be some cousin, perhaps a neighbor.

I know. Friends are truly hypocrites in my case. But, there is one who I call my brother(Best friend) I can depend on.

Try, try to tell other people. Ask for help again. Don't let loose the hope that are hanging. There is time that is made from gold. They are yours to use.

Dude forget them.
Ive had people backbite about me over the same damn thing.
The best thing to do is to ignore them and try to vent your feelings in other ways than cutting.
The way i see it is-'friends' are random people we speak to,whereas family we live with.
Tbh i told no-one after my 'friend'.
I kept it to myself after having learnt my lesson.
Just try to ignore them.
Pm me if you would lyk to talk

they clearly are not understnading.... doesn't sound like very good friends to me... you are not an attention seeker. ignore them, and perhaps talk to an adult abou it. PM me if you want to talk

sokay, i know the feeling. i used to tell my friends about the abuse i went through when i was younger. they thought i was lying so people would feel bad.... i wasn't. you just need to power through it. if they won't believe you, they aren't really your friends.
