So when I first started SI-ing back in december of last year I injured one way…it never really worked out though and it never helped as much as I felt it should have. Now back in August of this past year my friends confronted me because I told one of them and then that one told the other two and then they all confronted me and one girls mom even told my mom. I convinced my mom it was nothing and to let it go and I stopped injuring all together even though I desperately wanted to injure myself…just something! Tonight though I was taking a bath and I started looking at a scar on my arm and this scar wasn’t from injuring but I always wished it was. Looking at that scar made me want to injure….and I did. Now I just have to pray that there is no nice weather soon where I might wear clothes that would show it and then get questioned. And now as crazy as it sounds I wanna tell my one best friend who actually has enough courage to ask me if I’m still depressed and injuring and all that. But I don’t want my mom to know that I started in the first place much less again.
You should tell your friend or your mom at least. You really need to get these feeling out ir you’ll go crazy!!! People knowing about your struggles with SI will help you… I promise you 🙂

Beg your friend not to tell anybody. Maybe, she won’t and maybe she’ll feel honored that you trusted her. Tell her that you DO want to stop. Then, maybe she won’t feel AS concerned and will feel less of a need to tell anybody else! Good luck!
