hey, I am 13 and have been s.i.ing for about a half a year and I need help but can not tell my mom or dad what happened because thay whould flip but i need treatment very bad. Most think of me a the most likely to ever s.i. in my group of friends but here i am S.I.ing and people do not know. So has any one been the same place as me and found away to tell there mom or dad? please post if you have been here thanks.
Hey ive been there. It took me awhile to tell my mom about it, but im so glad i did. I still havent told my dad…only cause well it would not help things. That’s a whole other story. But me and my mom are realy close and so i was able to open up to her about it. But i really encouarge you to tell them. Maybe even if its just one of them, if you’re closer to one than the other. But please try. It will really help. Especially cause you havent done it that long. Its better to get help sooner and than later and its good you realize you need it. But you cant until you take that first step. Maybe try telling a really close friend first to just get it out if you havent already. Then you will be strong enough to tell them. I know i had at least 5 people who knew before i even told my mom. But it really is worth it. Let me know if you need someone to talk to or anything. Im here for you. gods2weety@yahoo.com
Well, I wish I could help you out on this one. I have the same problem. My s.i.ing has gotten to a serious level, but the problem of telling my parents is a very large issue for me. If you make a decision, feel free to email me at h_grueninger08@yahoo.com. I’d love to help you out.
oh ive been there all right its hard but the only thing i personally can suggest is to make sure if they blow up you can have somwhere safe to go(friends,Other family)and tell them thats what i did and well it wasnt as bad as i thought it would be
good luck heres my email if you need support

trust me, a lot of us have been there. ive always had this outter facade, or cover, to hide my SI from my friends. i told my closest friend about it, who is also in my closest group of friends. he is totally there for me, and i think you should get it off your chest to at least one person who is the closest to you. my mom has just recently found out abouy my SI. she’s kind of mad, but at the same time, she wants to help me in whatever way she can. your parents won’t bring you down more. they’re most likely to help you and try and solve whatever problems you’re having. my mom is still touchy, but now i know that i can tell her anything. if you need to talk to anyone, just emial me: ninankc234@yahoo.com trust me, you’re really not alone with this kind of problem.
oh i have been there! i didn’t tell my mom but i did tell a youth pastor….and he told my mom….it was kinda ocword though because the youth pastor that i told wasn’t MY youth pastor….i had never been to that church. but my mom was ok with it. i mean she was really upset but she was upset because she cared about me not because she was mad at me. my dad knows because my mom told him but he has never said any thing about it to me. my advice is TELL SOME ONE! i don’t care who but tell. i told a really good guy friend and he went and told my best friend with out talking to me about it. i was a little frustrated at him but it was for the best. and you will never quite alone. you have to get help and i am so happy that you realize that. i tried to quite all of three times. and this time i am done for good. so good luck and let me know if you need to talk some more. i will be praying for you….
mabey you could tell a friend and ask them to tell your mom for you. or you could write her a letter… i no this is hard. but its important. ill be thinking of you. good luck…
