i dont know whether im posting in the right section but anyway:
my mum randomly brings the subject of me self harming up. i dont do it anymore, im working on it i guess, but still whenever i do something wrong she always goes back to that.
Like a couple of days ago she found a massive scratch down the side of the bath and she went mental... i dont shout at my mum but i did speak harshly, and i felt so guilty afterwards, its just i cant help saying im not dumb enough to make a scratch with a razor down the side of the bath while cutting myself.... this lead to a "lets check for scars while swearing" thing.
i thought that maybe i could wear short sleeves but im too embarresed and scared to do that becaus im sure she is gonna start telling me that i feel she is a bad mother, and that im an attention seeker, i make her sick and so on... it happens enough for me to think that :(
i never did tell my parents the reason behind my self harm because whenever tried to, she just began saying that im talking bullshit and that all of what i say is a load of excuses.... i wish she would... not get over it, but maybe let me talk a bit more.. i dont know, this is just another one of them rant/complaint things :rolleyes:

How long ago did your mother find out about it?
It might just be taking her time to adjust to the fact that you self harmed, most parents are likely to freak out and eventually she should be mature enough to talk to you about it without accusing or being a bitch, one that is done than you'll both probably feel a lot better.

If it's a long term thing, then you might not want to wait for her to talk. Just tell her straight - you want the crap you get from her about it to stop and that you'd like to talk more so you can both move on. Try to be as polite as possible and assertive - not aggressive, as this will make her not want to talk to you.

Good Luck

Sounds like your mum needs to listen to you more rather than jump to conclusions like that. Sounds like she's worried about you but wants to keep her reputation intact or is just emotional either way if you want to talk to her about it wait until she's calm. I hope things work out for you. If you ever need to talk you know where I am :)
