[LoveMe_HateMe]

i do sometimes cut, but never really deep, only enough to feel it and i just thought about proper slashing my wrist. ive thought about it like i did 10 mins ago.. and its kinda got me freaked out...should i tell someone about it/me cutting, like boyfriend, friends, parents in case it gets worse? or should i not tell anyone? cause i dont want anyone to worry about me :(
any advice on what i should do? :/

Tell someone before it gets out of control.

I came out to a friend of mine first, when I actually told them. You let it wait a little too long and even when you hide them, someone will see them eventually. That's how the first four people found out about me, two of my friends and my parents. I find that a close friend who you tell personally will have a greater intention to help you and support you without freaking out, which they usually do more of when they find out on their own.
It takes a lot to tell someone, so I understand not telling everyone, so pick someone you really trust who you know cares deeply about you. Telling them yourself shows that you trust them and don't want to keep secrets from them, while helping them react in a calmer way.
Good luck :)

Just tell someone you trust and who you can got and talk to about it and help you through it
Thats what I did, and I found it helped me

I think that you should tell someone.
Maybe just a friend at first then (because they know you better) They decide what to do from there.
I would do that first, then if you think that it is getting worse tell someone that can give you the help that you want.

okay, i know i need to tell someone and i know who that someone is, but how do i tell them? cause its not really something you can just randomly say in a conversation "oh yeah by the way i cut myself" :/

any suggestions? :what:

:)

I'd set aside a time that is conveniant for both of you, depending on your schedules. Ask him/her if you could have a moment to talk sometime when he/she isn't busy. And when you have that time, I would start out with confirming how much you trust them and why you think they need to know (they mean a lot to you, etc.). Talk about how you've had a hard time lately, depression or bipolar disorder, or whatever you might be going through that they might already know a little about. Depending whether you are proud or not (if you are proud, well, some people are, and that's fine). If you're not proud, which is usually the case, then you might want to say something about how you know it's wrong and you need a good support system before starting to get some help so the treatment process is effective. Make sure they know that you do care about them and don't want to hurt them in addition to yourself.

In the end, it isn't an easy thing, but hopefully they will understand and be there for you :) I've been lucky to have all of my friends there for me through coming out about my mental disorders and self-harm. Best wishes :)

right, okay, i'll keep that in mind. thank you thats really helped :) now i just need to get the courage to bring it up :/

[Mike321]

I told my close friend in pretty much the same way 'fade2black' suggested, you'll feel alot better once you've told someone you trust, it means theres someone else to turn to if things get tough
It takes alot to tell someone about it, but trust me its worth it in the end
Good luck :)

thanks for the advice guys but, i cant tell anyone, i dont have the courage to. i dont want them looking at me thinking about it and worrying if/when im gonna do it again. and i'm scared of their reactions towards me after i tell them, im worried that they'll just leave me thinking its too much to handle or what ever (i know if they honeslty were my best friend that they wouldnt but that fear is still there :() and i dont want them looking at me in pity or judgeing me oranything :/ and i dont want it get out and then people thinking i'm only do it for attention :(
