When my mom found out I was shoveling the snow and when I came inside she wanted me to take my jacket off and we had a face off for 3 hours and then I finally told her, I’m in therapy now and I was 3 months clean and then I just broke down like 20 minutes ago and now I’m 15 minutes clean. I shouldn’t have made this comment but I just wanted to tell someone who understands.

Yesterday i was watching a video where a person was ranting about a girl that was glorifying self harm and such. My mom had just walked into my room when the video showed people who took 'aesthetic' self harm pictures. (They wanted to explain how messed up it was). My mom then got mad at me and just said "dont you dare ever do that" and i just feel so embarrassed because i have already... If she would ever find out she would definitely 1. Scold me 2. Think i was doing it because of shit on the internet Those ironic comments you see where they say that parents say "its because of that damned phone" to everything? That would be my situation.

I had literally told my mother that I think I might have depression (before I started self-harming) and her reply was: I am sorry, but I really don't know anything about these things. And a few days ago that incident she was joking that how she think she have depression.

my parents reacted quite similarly. they already knew i was struggling with mental health and my mom knew i self harmed in the past, but not currently. when they found out it was september 16, 2019. i was so motivated to recover after cause my dad told me he was scared, and he had only seen the shallow cuts on my bicep, not my thighs which were a mess. i ended up self harming a week later. the longest ive been clean since then is 10 weeks. i see a therapist weekly but ive lost all motivation to recover. im somehow 2 weeks clean right now. im not sure why i commented this, just wanted to share my experience as well. to anyone reading this, youre so strong and you deserve good in your life ❤️

You can do it pal! I know how hard and it is and how addictive it gets, but you can do it! I'm 4 months clean after 4 years of doing it. It's possible, just take one day at a time. In the hardest moments just think to stay strong until the next hour or day, then another one and so on, take a day at a time and keep going. Eventually some day you won't even have to tell yourself to wait but you'll be able to just tell yourself to say "just dont do it, it's not worth it" and you'll have less and less moments of urge and it will get better. At least that helped me. I believe in you💖

It was a few weeks ago. The whole day I had been lying. I said I was doing homework. I didn’t. I was crying in bed, watching 13 Reasons Why, and self harming. At 8:30 my mom was worried about my schoolwork and said that I didn’t submit one thing yet (everything is use at 9). I was texting a self harm hotline number when she walked in. My dad came up and started yelling at me for not doing my work. I screamed “I hate myself”. And my dad yelled “That’s not true”. My mum made him go away. He took my phone with him. I wanted to tell my mum about my self harming. I kept imagining my dad looking through the texts. I told her I self harmed. She instantly grabbed my arm and looked at my wrist. At that moment I felt terrible. That my self harm wasn’t real because it wasn’t on my wrists. I showed her my shoulder. I felt like it wasn’t bloody enough. That I didn’t do it long enough. That the cuts weren’t deep enough. She told me about how she had troubles with alcohol before I was born. We were both crying. Then it was over. I was crying and I had to work on my Latin assignment. By then it was 8:50. She made me work on that even though I was obviously going through something. I need up submitting the next day. That made me feel so fucking bad. That I didn’t cut deep enough. On Friday, 5 days ago, I self harmed for the first time since. I was sitting on my bathroom counter. I was thinking, I will never self harm. That makes me ugly. Instead I will fast. I won’t eat over the weekend. I dropped a glass bottle, just really small two inches tall. I picked up all the pieces while crying. I was playing the same song over and over again. It is called “Panic Room”. It was so triggering. I accidentally cut my foot. There was blood everywhere. I threw all the small prices away, but kept the two biggest. I cut myself. Just two scratches, really. But it felt so good for some reason. I have the pieces wrapped in a tissue on a shelf in my closet. I haven’t used them again, but I probably will. My dad doesn’t know. And my mum never talks about it.

My parents don't know, and I'm honestly really scared to tell them or have them find out. The closest time they almost found out was when I had to go to the hospital (I was never a full patient, I'm fine now), for a bit they were wondering if it was my appendix. When I realized I might've had to go in for emergency surgery, I was so scared a doctor would see the scars on my thigh and tell my mom. I even cried a bit, my mom was with me and thought it was just the fear of possibly needing surgery (that was definitely part of it though). Currently, I've been clean for about 2 and a half months. I sorta hate that I'm clean but I also hate the scars. Sorry if I overshared, no one really knows, and the only person I've told that I still talk to (I've told 2 people in total) thinks I'm cleaner for a lot longer than I am.

My parents found out last winter when I got hospitalized in the mental ward for being dangerously suicidal and me being underage my doctor had to tell them, it was on my papers anyway that were given to them at my discharge so my psychiatrist told my mum, after almost 4 years of hiding it..it was really hard. Luckily I talked about it beforehand with my doctor and she agreed with me to only tell my mum and ask her to never bring it up or ask anything about it. I had bad experiences with my dad knowing this kind of stuff, I've suffered from trichothillomania (idk how to spell it) since I was 11 and when my dad found out he started to make fun of me, use it as an insult or to make me feel guilty telling me I was doing it on purpose just to make my mum feel bad. The less he knows the better :/ I'm 18 years old now. I'm diagnosed with ocd, major depression, generalised anxiety and bulimia from my hospitalization last year and since I turned 18 I had to change doctor and the new one is currently trying to understand if I may have bpd. It's all so scary but I'm 4 months clean from sh :3 I really hope everything gets better for anyone who's struggling

That doesn't matter really) That's all I can think about today, I hope they won't start checking my arms :> _I just wanted to write everything down here, this is just like a note book for me now_

When I first started self harming I didn't really know why I felt the way I did. And one day at summer camp a few kids found out and I guess one of them told the camp leader cus she confronted me about it and then when I got home my mom confronted me about it and started crying cus she thought people would think she's a bad parent and told me if I stopped cutting myself she'd reward me by taking me to hot topic. It's been several years since then and I've realised one of the reasons why I started is because she's a bad parent.

When you described how you hid it to your parents, how much you didn’t want them to find out... it made me think about my own situation. I’ve been hiding it for 2 years and a half, and I still hide it. I had a lot of moments when I was completely clean, nearly a year I think, but since this summer my mental health is going worse and worse... I’m seeing a therapist, my parents think it’s for the stress (which isn’t completely false actually) but it’s also mainly for the selfharm. Actually I want them to know that, but at the same time I don’t. It would make me feel better I guess, but I don’t have the strength and the courage to have this discussion with them...

I think you're so well spoken and hit the nail on the head with so much. I had a similar experience with my mum finding out when I turned off a bathroom light whilst she was walking past. She saw my arm and turned the light back on and said "let me see" or something like that; I never felt so unprepared and exposed. She wasn't angry or anything, I could tell she was upset or disappointed but she just had that look that was like "don't worry sweetheart" 💚 I lost her a couple of months ago and what I'd fucking give to see her again

My mom saw my cuts when I was getting an electrocardiogram, she didn't say a thing the whole ride home. My sister already knew since she was also self-harming and I'm not sure but I think my mom knew she self-harmed because she was in therapy. We didn't talk about why or how, we never talked about it, she just got extremely mad if she saw my cuts red because she thought I still was self-harming (which I was but no longer in visible areas). That was in 2013/2014. In 2017 my dad got to know I relapsed because my asshole doctor said something like "oh, you harmed yourself, how you did it?, never seen a thing like that" in front of him. He told me he understood me. (I was in therapy for anxiety and depression at this point) As for now, I have relapsed many times, the last time a few days ago, I'm writing this trying to ignore the urges to cut...

My parents don’t know. I’ve been doing it for around the start of this school year and for 3 months last year. Only one girl irl knows about it currently. Or at-least no one’s has talked to me abt it or tried to get me to stop besides her. Honestly me and her were not close friends at all but uh for context I’m in a drama club and she’s in a older grade and is moving to high school after this school year is done. But one day in drama during a lunch meeting I had my arm all covered and she asked what happened and I just said “oh yeah I hurt myself by mistake ha” and she saw through that bs so fast, still dunno how she realized but oh well. But in the end she got it out of me and she’s the only person who knows. During drama meetings she checks up on me sometimes but on Wednesday she checked on me in the bathroom right before our play except she did it right in front of this dude.

Ahhhh I’m kinda late for commenting but my mom found out through a friend. What happened was we were at school and her phone had a notification and her mom went through old old old messages from a year before. On those messages we talked about doing it and I tried getting help(she calmed me down but it was nice to talk to someone) and her mom sent all the old messages to my mom. We fought about everything for about a week. The whole thing made her completely lose trust in me and I was only 12. I’ve never gained that trust back and she was mad mostly because I went to a friend to help me rather than her, but she never would (and still hasn’t) understood it and I knew that which was why I never went to her.

I'm afraid that they're going to control me more... Or not letting me cut This is my fear.. cause ..I don't wanna stop it.. And yes, sometimes I feel that hiding from them and from everyone gives me some independence... And I also wanted to protect them... Until today.. It was 5 years hiding so well trying so hard.. and now I'm mad at me because they know.. I'm ok now cause I take a loooot of pills for depression and anxiety.. I don't even feel things.... But I still wanna cut and I don't know why...

First of all thanks for again such an awesome Video ❤️ i apreciate the serenity you Talk about it. When my Patents found Out it was more of i guess an accident when i commited myself into my local psych ward (which btw. was so damn Bad and you Just felt humiliated by all the nurses and doctors which i then told my Patents after they Had a "Release" Talk with ne and the head nurse and Station doc. This Woman wanted To keep me under any circumstances there. My Patents where empathic enough To get that this wasnt going To Help me) My Patents Like yours Specialy my mum also sensed that something was Off before but we never Had the closest relationship due To domestic violenc and my sister getting all Attention and love so i would hide it or do it on the inner thighs or belly but therefore Harder because the bodyparts wherent so reliving. For a while they asked everyday If i was okay , but they didnt want To realise how suicidal an Bad i was bc. What could be so wrong in the Life of an 11 year old. Until now 8 years later a Lot of psychologist ,scars ,medications and Bad / good experiences later they slowly get when i want To Talk or when i Just want to be alone. Im still not healed or recovered and its still a huge addiction even if i See my own scars fade or just on a daily Base. But i now know that selfharm is Just a Symptom and Not whats causing it so even If i Cut again i dont See it Like a shame ,but more hey i was Clean for ... A month or smt. To all Out there maby now recovering dont loose Hope or faith , If U arent Happy with your psychologist Change it , maby try medications and try more than one Brand If the first doesnt Work for you. Love yall and thanks for your Videos ❤️

Here's my story of how my parents found out: The first one to know I'm self harming was my therapist. We talked about it in our second session. After a few sessions she had some kind of talk with my mom, where she asked her questions. So my therapist asked my mom (without telling her I'm self harming) if she ever noticed or knew of me self harming. My mom answered: "I am not sure". My therapist told me about it and my heart literally dropped. Since my therapist told me that my mom was "not sure", I was pretty sure my mom would one day come to me and adress the situation. Well, and that's what happened. One week after my therapist told me that, my mom came to my room and told me that she knew. She was in tears, barely able to control her crying. It broke my heart seeing her like that. I don't exactly know, how she found out, but maybe I was acting a little suspicious. I started wearing long sleeves even when it got a little to warm for that outside, I locked the bathroom door when I went to shower and once I had to get my blood taken and I covered the cuts with a band aid. Also my mom knew I was depressive and had a special eye on me. She often asked me if I was okay and I always said "I'm fine" , even if I wasn't. But I'm a really bad liar, because I'm usually a really honest person so maybe she noticed how I got nervous or answered to quick when she asked. My mom eventually told my dad. I promised to try and stop self harming, but I honestly didn't. I am currently in a really bad mental state but I'm doing everything to hide how I'm feeling because I don't want to hurt them and make them suffer with me. I used self harming as a coping skill a lot lately and I'm not proud of it. My therapy is "on pause" right now and it can take a few weeks until I get back in. My parents never made me show them my wounds/scars and they have no idea, how many cuts I have and where they are. I am honestly so afraid of the day they see them for the first time and I'm even more afraid of the day my little sisters will see them for the first time. I don't want to confront them with this topic at such a young age. I want them to be carefree and not worry about me.

When I was like 9 or 10 or something I told my parents I wanted to for but it wasn't like serious. I was annoyed at them for some stupid reason and it was more like a metaphorical way or whatever I didn't actually mean it I just wanted my words to have some power in them. They screamed at me and told me to never say it again. When I was 12 or 13, my mom wanted to bring me to this random class extracurricular thing and I really didn't want to do and I told her it's because I'm really scared of meeting new people and she told me it's dumb and that she'll send me to a mental hospital. I feel like all of these small things really impacted my feelings towards telling people about it. Only one person knows, because she told me she does it and I tolf her I do as well. I'm scared to tell my parents because I don't want them to think it's their fault and God forbid they do anything to themselves as a result. I don't want to be known as the kid whose parents killed themselves or anything. I don't want them to treat me differently, just with more compassion. I recently relapsed after almost a year, and it was because of a dream I had of me finding someone sh ing in a bathroom. I want to tell my friends, but I'm terrified out of my mind. I don't think they would leave, but I don't want them to think it's stupid or anything. I try to bring the topic up just to see their views on it, but I can never get a clear response. I don't know. I'm confused.

I had a vivid dream that my mom found the cuts on my leg. In the dream she left a note for me when I woke up saying “I know you sh, I saw the scars. I panicked and the dream woke me up. When I actually woke up my leg was hanging out from the blanket and my pant leg was rolled up. I don’t know if she really saw the cuts, but I’m still really shaken up from that. I’ve been extra on edge because she’s been talking about buying a pool, and I can’t wear a bathing suit anymore... I haven’t told anyone that I sh yet. I can’t handle the idea of people who care about me knowing. It makes it feel more real. I feel like a part of me does want people to know because I keep sh in more obvious places over time, but then I start trying to cover up even more. I know my mom is suspicious, and I think she noticed the scratches on my arm from a doctor’s appointment. I’m just so terrified of talking to her about it, and I will never tell her if I can avoid it.

My mom had just walked into my room when the video showed people who took 'aesthetic' self harm pictures. (They wanted to explain how messed up it was). My mom then got mad at me and just said "dont you dare ever do that" and i just feel so embarrassed because i have already... If she would ever find out she would definitely 1. Scold me 2. Think i was doing it because of shit on the internet Those ironic comments you see where they say that parents say "its because of that damned phone" to everything? That would be my situation.

You can do it pal! I know how hard and it is and how addictive it gets, but you can do it! I'm 4 months clean after 4 years of doing it. It's possible, just take one day at a time. In the hardest moments just think to stay strong until the next hour or day, then another one and so on, take a day at a time and keep going. Eventually some day you won't even have to tell yourself to wait but you'll be able to just tell yourself to say "just dont do it, it's not worth it" and you'll have less and less moments of urge and it will get better. At least that helped me. I believe in you💖

It was a few weeks ago. The whole day I had been lying. I said I was doing homework. I didn’t. I was crying in bed, watching 13 Reasons Why, and self harming. At 8:30 my mom was worried about my schoolwork and said that I didn’t submit one thing yet (everything is use at 9). I was texting a self harm hotline number when she walked in. My dad came up and started yelling at me for not doing my work. I screamed “I hate myself”. And my dad yelled “That’s not true”. My mum made him go away. He took my phone with him. I wanted to tell my mum about my self harming. I kept imagining my dad looking through the texts. I told her I self harmed. She instantly grabbed my arm and looked at my wrist. At that moment I felt terrible. That my self harm wasn’t real because it wasn’t on my wrists. I showed her my shoulder. I felt like it wasn’t bloody enough. That I didn’t do it long enough. That the cuts weren’t deep enough. She told me about how she had troubles with alcohol before I was born. We were both crying. Then it was over. I was crying and I had to work on my Latin assignment. By then it was 8:50. She made me work on that even though I was obviously going through something. I need up submitting the next day. That made me feel so fucking bad. That I didn’t cut deep enough. On Friday, 5 days ago, I self harmed for the first time since. I was sitting on my bathroom counter. I was thinking, I will never self harm. That makes me ugly. Instead I will fast. I won’t eat over the weekend. I dropped a glass bottle, just really small two inches tall. I picked up all the pieces while crying. I was playing the same song over and over again. It is called “Panic Room”. It was so triggering. I accidentally cut my foot. There was blood everywhere. I threw all the small prices away, but kept the two biggest. I cut myself. Just two scratches, really. But it felt so good for some reason. I have the pieces wrapped in a tissue on a shelf in my closet. I haven’t used them again, but I probably will. My dad doesn’t know. And my mum never talks about it.

My parents don't know, and I'm honestly really scared to tell them or have them find out. The closest time they almost found out was when I had to go to the hospital (I was never a full patient, I'm fine now), for a bit they were wondering if it was my appendix. When I realized I might've had to go in for emergency surgery, I was so scared a doctor would see the scars on my thigh and tell my mom. I even cried a bit, my mom was with me and thought it was just the fear of possibly needing surgery (that was definitely part of it though). Currently, I've been clean for about 2 and a half months. I sorta hate that I'm clean but I also hate the scars. Sorry if I overshared, no one really knows, and the only person I've told that I still talk to (I've told 2 people in total) thinks I'm cleaner for a lot longer than I am.

My parents found out last winter when I got hospitalized in the mental ward for being dangerously suicidal and me being underage my doctor had to tell them, it was on my papers anyway that were given to them at my discharge so my psychiatrist told my mum, after almost 4 years of hiding it..it was really hard. Luckily I talked about it beforehand with my doctor and she agreed with me to only tell my mum and ask her to never bring it up or ask anything about it. I had bad experiences with my dad knowing this kind of stuff, I've suffered from trichothillomania (idk how to spell it) since I was 11 and when my dad found out he started to make fun of me, use it as an insult or to make me feel guilty telling me I was doing it on purpose just to make my mum feel bad. The less he knows the better :/ I'm 18 years old now. I'm diagnosed with ocd, major depression, generalised anxiety and bulimia from my hospitalization last year and since I turned 18 I had to change doctor and the new one is currently trying to understand if I may have bpd. It's all so scary but I'm 4 months clean from sh :3 I really hope everything gets better for anyone who's struggling

My mum hit the roof the first year I self harmed threatened to send me to a psych ward. After that the anger got less as they realised I had a serious issue and just left it to me to become clean
When my parents (specifically my mother) found out, she said the next time I did it she would send me to a mental hospital or something, which made me stop for a while until I learned to hide it better (which isn't a good thing! But I don't think that was the best response because I still struggle with it to this day, but much more determined in hiding it instead)

When I first started self harming I didn't really know why I felt the way I did. And one day at summer camp a few kids found out and I guess one of them told the camp leader cus she confronted me about it and then when I got home my mom confronted me about it and started crying cus she thought people would think she's a bad parent and told me if I stopped cutting myself she'd reward me by taking me to hot topic. It's been several years since then and I've realised one of the reasons why I started is because she's a bad parent.
I'm terrified if my parents ever found out. I'd be killed and my life would only go down hill djdbbd

I don't hear a lot of church involvement of self-harm with kids.. I was in my 30s when I had my breakdown .. it started way before but my parents found out when they watched me pound myself in my head several times.. it just went down from there.. a few months later, I moved back home and ended up going into a psych ward several times over the next two years. I think i'm doing better now. :)
Hi everyone my parents reacted really badly to finding out about my self harm I was called all sorts of horrible names and just felt all around rubbish, my sisters all reacted in different ways I have 3 of them by the way but yeah anyways my mum kicked off and my took the handle off of my bedroom door then also took the locks off the downstairs toilet and bathroom it was really hard as I wasn’t just cutting but I also had bulimia so it made the feelings even more intense. I told my mum I would never do it again but secretly my youngest sister knew that everything I had just said was a complete lie as she found all my tools like a week or so later. I’ve been 5 years clean but I do still get the urge every so often it was when I had my daughter x

so my parents have been absent basically my whole life and i lived with many different people since then but the longest i lived with someone was with my grandma the way she found was by my brother, he walked in on me using the bathroom and saw my thighs and started screaming about them and then told my grandma really loudly in front of her friends and she came to my room and told me to show her and i did because i don’t like when people yell at me and she asked why and i couldn’t tell her why and then she asked if it was because her ex boyfriend was gone and it was not the reason actually and she decided to tell the neighbors, her friends, my mom (who is a very bad person), and my aunt. my aunt said that it was probably because my brother was getting more attention than me and i honestly don’t care how much attention i get. and then my mom would use the fact that i self harmed against me.
So glad her parents reacted with love. I know many people have had awful experiences and if thats the case: Never let manipulation or shame from someone who's supposed to be a loved one affect how you see yourself. You are brave, you are loved, and you deserve recovery, stay strong.
When you described how you hid it to your parents, how much you didn’t want them to find out... it made me think about my own situation. I’ve been hiding it for 2 years and a half, and I still hide it. I had a lot of moments when I was completely clean, nearly a year I think, but since this summer my mental health is going worse and worse... I’m seeing a therapist, my parents think it’s for the stress (which isn’t completely false actually) but it’s also mainly for the selfharm. Actually I want them to know that, but at the same time I don’t. It would make me feel better I guess, but I don’t have the strength and the courage to have this discussion with them... Sorry if I overshared but I think I really needed to talk about that to someone who would understand
I think you're so well spoken and hit the nail on the head with so much. I had a similar experience with my mum finding out when I turned off a bathroom light whilst she was walking past. She saw my arm and turned the light back on and said "let me see" or something like that; I never felt so unprepared and exposed. She wasn't angry or anything, I could tell she was upset or disappointed but she just had that look that was like "don't worry sweetheart" 💚 I lost her a couple of months ago and what I'd fucking give to see her again
My mom saw my cuts when I was getting an electrocardiogram, she didn't say a thing the whole ride home. My sister already knew since she was also self-harming and I'm not sure but I think my mom knew she self-harmed because she was in therapy. We didn't talk about why or how, we never talked about it, she just got extremely mad if she saw my cuts red because she thought I still was self-harming (which I was but no longer in visible areas). That was in 2013/2014. In 2017 my dad got to know I relapsed because my asshole doctor said something like "oh, you harmed yourself, how you did it?, never seen a thing like that" in front of him. He told me he understood me. (I was in therapy for anxiety and depression at this point) As for now, I have relapsed many times, the last time a few days ago, I'm writing this trying to ignore the urges to cut...

My parents found out because I cut my thumb, my mom saw it and made me roll up my sleeves. It was really embarrassing because we were in a public place. She then started screaming at me. She consistently yelled and blamed me for it over the next few months which made it worse. It was annoying too because she worked in the medical field so I figured she would react calmer since she should know how to respond because she worked in the medical field.

My parents don’t know. I’ve been doing it for around the start of this school year and for 3 months last year. Only one girl irl knows about it currently. Or at-least no one’s has talked to me abt it or tried to get me to stop besides her. Honestly me and her were not close friends at all but uh for context I’m in a drama club and she’s in a older grade and is moving to high school after this school year is done. But one day in drama during a lunch meeting I had my arm all covered and she asked what happened and I just said “oh yeah I hurt myself by mistake ha” and she saw through that bs so fast, still dunno how she realized but oh well. But in the end she got it out of me and she’s the only person who knows. During drama meetings she checks up on me sometimes but on Wednesday she checked on me in the bathroom right before our play except she did it right in front of this dude. It was completely fucking horrifying and I think the kid was horrified. Honestly I don’t care abt the fact she wrist checked me but it’s the fact she did it infront of this kid who never even knew. AUGHHH I’m not even friends w the dude she did it infront of but still, AUGAHH I just it sucked

Ahhhh I’m kinda late for commenting but my mom found out through a friend. What happened was we were at school and her phone had a notification and her mom went through old old old messages from a year before. On those messages we talked about doing it and I tried getting help(she calmed me down but it was nice to talk to someone) and her mom sent all the old messages to my mom. We fought about everything for about a week. The whole thing made her completely lose trust in me and I was only 12. I’ve never gained that trust back and she was mad mostly because I went to a friend to help me rather than her, but she never would (and still hasn’t) understood it and I knew that which was why I never went to her.
Told my mom today cause I needed to go to the hospital... I'm feeling so ashamed... But they knew that I did it in the past.. cause my best friend told them 2 years ago (just because I didn't wanna kiss him or whatever)... But today was hard.. But i really needed a hospital.. I'm afraid that they're going to control me more... Or not letting me cut This is my fear.. cause ..I don't wanna stop it.. And yes, sometimes I feel that hiding from them and from everyone gives me some independence... And I also wanted to protect them... Until today.. It was 5 years hiding so well trying so hard.. and now I'm mad at me because they know.. I'm ok now cause I take a loooot of pills for depression and anxiety.. I don't even feel things.... But I still wanna cut and I don't know why...
First of all thanks for again such an awesome Video ❤️ i apreciate the serenity you Talk about it. When my Patents found Out it was more of i guess an accident when i commited myself into my local psych ward (which btw. was so damn Bad and you Just felt humiliated by all the nurses and doctors which i then told my Patents after they Had a "Release" Talk with ne and the head nurse and Station doc. This Woman wanted To keep me under any circumstances there. My Patents where empathic enough To get that this wasnt going To Help me) My Patents Like yours Specialy my mum also sensed that something was Off before but we never Had the closest relationship due To domestic violenc and my sister getting all Attention and love so i would hide it or do it on the inner thighs or belly but therefore Harder because the bodyparts wherent so reliving. For a while they asked everyday If i was okay , but they didnt want To realise how suicidal an Bad i was bc. What could be so wrong in the Life of an 11 year old. Until now 8 years later a Lot of psychologist ,scars ,medications and Bad / good experiences later they slowly get when i want To Talk or when i Just want to be alone. Im still not healed or recovered and its still a huge addiction even if i See my own scars fade or just on a daily Base. But i now know that selfharm is Just a Symptom and Not whats causing it so even If i Cut again i dont See it Like a shame ,but more hey i was Clean for ... A month or smt. To all Out there maby now recovering dont loose Hope or faith , If U arent Happy with your psychologist Change it , maby try medications and try more than one Brand If the first doesnt Work for you. Love yall and thanks for your Videos ❤️

i was clean for 3 months, but relapsed yesterday...
Here's my story of how my parents found out: The first one to know I'm self harming was my therapist. We talked about it in our second session. After a few sessions she had some kind of talk with my mom, where she asked her questions. So my therapist asked my mom (without telling her I'm self harming) if she ever noticed or knew of me self harming. My mom answered: "I am not sure". My therapist told me about it and my heart literally dropped. Since my therapist told me that my mom was "not sure", I was pretty sure my mom would one day come to me and adress the situation. Well, and that's what happened. One week after my therapist told me that, my mom came to my room and told me that she knew. She was in tears, barely able to control her crying. It broke my heart seeing her like that. I don't exactly know, how she found out, but maybe I was acting a little suspicious. I started wearing long sleeves even when it got a little to warm for that outside, I locked the bathroom door when I went to shower and once I had to get my blood taken and I covered the cuts with a band aid. Also my mom knew I was depressive and had a special eye on me. She often asked me if I was okay and I always said "I'm fine" , even if I wasn't. But I'm a really bad liar, because I'm usually a really honest person so maybe she noticed how I got nervous or answered to quick when she asked. My mom eventually told my dad. I promised to try and stop self harming, but I honestly didn't. I am currently in a really bad mental state but I'm doing everything to hide how I'm feeling because I don't want to hurt them and make them suffer with me. I used self harming as a coping skill a lot lately and I'm not proud of it. My therapy is "on pause" right now and it can take a few weeks until I get back in. My parents never made me show them my wounds/scars and they have no idea, how many cuts I have and where they are. I am honestly so afraid of the day they see them for the first time and I'm even more afraid of the day my little sisters will see them for the first time. I don't want to confront them with this topic at such a young age. I want them to be carefree and not worry about me.
My dad found out when a CPS worker came over to talk to me and noticed my wrist.
i really want to tell my mum. ive been doing it for 7 months i think. today i done a pretty deep one. i was scared incase it wouldnt stop bleeding. but its fine. i want to tell her. does anybody have tips to tell her. i cant carry on like this any longer... she almost found out. i was doing the dishes and she rolled my sleeve up half way. i think she saw them. and i just ran away. i dont know what to do at this point.
This happened in august 2021 I was outside with my grandma and mom me and my grandma were in the pool I had In my backyard I got out to go to the bathroom and my mom looked at my wrists she knew I had bandaids on my wrists but I just said that I got hurt at school my mom got suspicious and asked to see the scrapes on my wrist since I wouldn’t usually wear bandaids over scrapes I said yes since I didn’t know what else to say and said I would go inside to take them off I panicked and texted my friends at the time they said to make up a lie but my scars look to much like self harm scars I went outside and when my mom saw the bandaids were still in I started to have a breakdown and ran to the bathroom then locked the door she knew it was self harm at this point and banged on the door she was screaming and I eventually let her in after a few minutes she then forced me to take off the bandaids on my wrist I showed her and since my grandma was still there I tried to put them back on them went outside and my mom doesn’t talk about it anymore
Are you saying I should tell my parents I wanna die- Bc I think that’s the worst idea ever. They would literally kick me out
I’m scared of my mum & dad finding out bc I don’t wanna know what they would do if they knew like I’m only 11 and I hate my life I wish it could just end and my mum and dad once saw my scares

Same here but the difference is that I'm 13
Merci pour ce partage... pour moi ça a été... très difficile le jour ou ils l'ont découvert... et encore aujourd'hui . Je pense qu'ils sont dans le déni ^_^ genre "on ferme les yeux. Ce bandage? Oh ce n'est rien!! Tout va bien^_^"
That is my worst worst worst fear I hope it never happens
TW $ELF H4RM Thank u for making this video. I just opened up to my therapist yesterday about my $H and now i convinced myself to update her everytime i relapse. Next week shes gonna call my parents, and im scared if they would punish me or if they will help me out, but i except both. I wish i could get help but also it feels so good that i cant stop, its relieving and i do it even when im just bored bcs lately ive feeling really emotionless. Srs, i cant feel any emotion at all. I just feel a bit worthless and its hard to fight the urges..
When I was like 9 or 10 or something I told my parents I wanted to for but it wasn't like serious. I was annoyed at them for some stupid reason and it was more like a metaphorical way or whatever I didn't actually mean it I just wanted my words to have some power in them. They screamed at me and told me to never say it again. When I was 12 or 13, my mom wanted to bring me to this random class extracurricular thing and I really didn't want to do and I told her it's because I'm really scared of meeting new people and she told me it's dumb and that she'll send me to a mental hospital. I feel like all of these small things really impacted my feelings towards telling people about it. Only one person knows, because she told me she does it and I tolf her I do as well. I'm scared to tell my parents because I don't want them to think it's their fault and God forbid they do anything to themselves as a result. I don't want to be known as the kid whose parents killed themselves or anything. I don't want them to treat me differently, just with more compassion. I recently relapsed after almost a year, and it was because of a dream I had of me finding someone sh ing in a bathroom. I want to tell my friends, but I'm terrified out of my mind. I don't think they would leave, but I don't want them to think it's stupid or anything. I try to bring the topic up just to see their views on it, but I can never get a clear response. I don't know. I'm confused.
I'm 10 started having signs of depression at 6,also I would scream out that i wanted to die ,nobody would listen 2 years ago I started cutting ,I'm currently gone the longest ive ever gone without cutting,2 days and like 3 hours my mom did see once we were in a store, I didn't cut that deep that day so it looked like marker I said it was marker...she didn't believe me but she brought it up again when we got home ,I said I wasn't eating and she was like "SO NOW YOU'RE CUTTING AND STARVING YOURSELF?!" and a couple days ago I was setting up with my mom and therapist and I lied all the questions were about like depression, self harming , suicidal thoughts, my room was in the room if I wasn't lying I would have said yes to everything...

It was hard at first but I kept trying, Even tho I never told my mom,I got help from my friends and my mom sent me to therapy because i was "angry to much" but she didnt really d anything about anger,she was more about emotions in general.

Hey Hun am here for you
Clean for about 4 minutes
Your accent sounds incredibly similar to our foreign exchange student’s who’s from THAT’S RIGHT YOU GUESSED IT 🇨🇭
Clean for about 5 minutes
I am 23 days free from self harm today, I'm proud of everyone in this comment section
As an active self harmer myself this is my worst fear
Of course I’m not sure but I theory I have is that she probably wore shorts to try and reassure her parents she didn’t, because then if most of her legs were showing they wouldn’t need to worry. But, it failed. Again, just a theory.
the worst day of my life was when my parents found out. but that was when it was only minor- its only been getting worse since then and i dont know how to stop
My parents found out today :/

You help me so much thank you 😊 💓
I kinda see myself in this story, ngl..pretty similar experiences and stuff, tho my parents think im clean, and i also think that they thought it was like a one time thing...but well i aint clean and i am afraid of my parents reaction...also i could never tell them, what triggers me, because they trigger me and telling your own parents, that they are th reason your doing it, might not be the best i dea at least not for me tho
i was in placement and staff said they wouldnt say any thing but they did and i didnt know about it. I ended up telling my grandma on a visit. thats how she found out my grandma is my parent.
After that, il you have to choice did you choose to tell them or did you choose to hide it knowing they could be chock like that. Sorry for my english I m just a Dumb french men.
My mum found mine and she went crazy on me and screamed at me now I can’t go to school because school will see it and section me under mental health 👍

SO WHAT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I had a vivid dream that my mom found the cuts on my leg. In the dream she left a note for me when I woke up saying “I know you sh, I saw the scars. I panicked and the dream woke me up. When I actually woke up my leg was hanging out from the blanket and my pant leg was rolled up. I don’t know if she really saw the cuts, but I’m still really shaken up from that. I’ve been extra on edge because she’s been talking about buying a pool, and I can’t wear a bathing suit anymore... I haven’t told anyone that I sh yet. I can’t handle the idea of people who care about me knowing. It makes it feel more real. I feel like a part of me does want people to know because I keep sh in more obvious places over time, but then I start trying to cover up even more. I know my mom is suspicious, and I think she noticed the scratches on my arm from a doctor’s appointment. I’m just so terrified of talking to her about it, and I will never tell her if I can avoid it.
