I’ve been self-injuring lately and I don’t want to tell my family because they’re really stressed out and concerned about other things and they don’t have the time or energy for me right now. And I need help real bad. But there’s like NO adults I can really tell. They’re always too busy. But I know something is wrong. They don’t…but I wish they did. I wish someone could look right at me and know there’s something wrong. But they can’t possibly know. It’s not that easy. I don’t want people to worry about me, but I just wish I could tell a friend or something. My friends never take me seriously though. I’ve always been the girl who cheers up their day or a shoulder to cry on. They’re not like that for me. Kind of stinks….
I want to tell my band director because he is a second father to me, and he saw my injuries once and talked to me privately and said “I’m worried about you, are you ok?”
And I lied right to his face, smile and all, and said I’m perfectly fine. And after I walked back to my friends I acted natural. But when I got home I cried my eyes out. I wish I could have told him.
Should I tell him?
Please help.
Tell him. You cant stay lost forever. There are very few chances to dig your self out of this deep hole. Do it if not for yourself for the others like me who dont have any one that cares abot them enough to notice.
yea i know how that is, if you want ur family to kno try to make it to where they can see the marks, that’s what i did…when ur ready to talk about it then you should talk about it to some one that you trust
Please tell him. He’s trying to reach out to you.
Trust me, you’ll feel much better to get these things off of your chest, considering the people that you thought could be there for you, aren’t.
Especially if this man is like a second father to you.
