I have been self injuring myself for about 2 years now. I don’t do it all the time, but it is a problem. I have scars now, and I’m doing a pretty good job at hiding them. but I don’t want scars, I don’t want to have anything to hide. I want to stop but I don’t know how. I also have nobody around me that I can turn to. I don’t want to tell my school councilor because I don’t want to be sent away. I have seen that happen to a friend an she practically went insane. I don’t want to end up that way. Nobody that I know has any idea of what to say of how to help. please, somebody help me stop.
stopping is your only solution but mediderma of something like that will get rid of the scars somewhat …. but only use that cream on healed scars.
First step is to tell someone you trust. Now that person may tell another but they will get you help. It doesn’t always mean that you’ll be sent away-but I’m not a DR. It will proably get worse before it gets better but you have to trust someone. You can call hotlines; Boys Town National Hotline 1-800-448-3000, National Suicide Prevention Lifeline 1-800-273-TALK, this web site (information line, so you have to lv a msg) 800-366-8288. CALL SOMEONE TALK TO SOMEONE-they will care!
thank you both for your help. I’m really trying, and I told someone I trust who overcame the same problem. she is really helping! again thank you!
