She refrerred me to this website. I don’t know if it will work. I told her honestly about why there were injuries on me. I told her when, where, and why I did it. That I started last year. The only thing not known to her is that this isn’t the only addictive S.I. I’ve gotten into. It’s just the one I’ve done most recently.
I love her dearly, I just hope she understands that I need to figure this out for myself.
Any ideas on how to calm her down and reasure her that I’ll make it through?
show her improvements..?
honestly advance in doing less or no s.i. at all.
prove to her you are getting better. and DO get better, dont just try to fool her. She loves you and wants the best for you.
The thing is, you CAN’T recover alone. You need to reassure her, that you want this for yourself, and that she can be there to support and help you, the best she can. But you cannot do it alone. Be thankful that you have her, and even though sometimes when people interfere, it may be frustrating, they want what’s best for us because they love us, and sometimes, it’s healthy to let them get in the way a little bit. Instead of pushing her out, open up to her more…it’ll be good for you in the long run.

i can’t have her helping like this though. she’s going crazy with worry.
i’m scared she’s going to snap and tell my parents.
she’s already told her co-worker and gave me her co-workers number.
i’m going to do this, but i HATE her worrying.
and she can tend to be the person who will bottle it up then start randomly crying and spit it out….
You need to calm her down, talk to her about it, assure her you’re going to get help and that you want to stop. And you have to just go with the flow of things. If she does end up spilling, don’t hate her for it. People who tell others do it to save us from ourselves. I’ve had much experience with that. My school found out 3 times and called my mom all three of those times. It’s scary but it’s worth it. It will get you where you need to be, I promise. Maybe, now that she knows, you can go to your parents and tell them, together. It sounds like its an impossible thing, I fully understand that. But it isn’t. Your parents love you, and if you ask for help and work with them to get it, good things will happen.
