Should i tell her the truth?

XxxThexAftermathxIsxSecondaryxxX 2012/02/17 03:02:31
first and foremost, i'm not trying to get attention or whatever other shit... this is a genuine question that i can't ask many people

Long story short, i've been in the office quite a bit (getting suspended and other shiz). so anywho, i was in the office for something, and my principal saw some scratches on my hand ( the ones from when i asked my friend to shove me into a wall to get out of class)... she called me into her office and asked if everything was okay... today i saw my counselor and the pricipal told her about the scratches on my hand. She asked me if i had been cutting and i paused and then denied it... She didn't see the heart and "down the street" scars on my left arm. I felt bad lying... and i feel like a need to talk to someone about it other than my two best friends... I honestly don't know what's holding me back... i guess it's just her reaction... end of story, i decided that i would try and muster up the courage to tell her...
my question is should i tell her, and how wud i go about doing so?
You!

    Well that's definitely good. You just need to focus on somethin important in your life and forget about everything else.

    I try to... i'm really busy with everything, so that's probably why i stopped cutting so much b/c i don't have time to let my mind get to me

    Tell her. It may seem nervracking at first but once you tell her you'll probably feel a lot better.
    Just ask to talk to her in private and tell her or have one of your friends go with you. I went with my best friend (She also cut but really bad)

    Tell her... and come straight out with it. One or two sentences, without messing around about it, so she understands. She's probably had plenty of training in such matters, and you might be surprised by how much she can help.

    Good luck with it. I reckon it will be much easier than you suspect.

    Try to go into it with the idea that you won't be doing this stuff anymore,

    though. Self-harm isn't constructive or helpful in reality.

    Tell her if you want help. If you are cutting, you should want help.

    Go to see her again. Say that you weren't quite honest with her last time you talked and you are sorry about that but you were scared. Tell her that you have been cutting and show her the places on your other arm. If she is any kind of good counselor, she should want to help you and may have some good suggestions of what might help you to stop. I think you know that this is a problem and want help. This is your chance to ask for help.

    I dunno. If it comes up again, then tell her straight, if it doesn't, then sorta segue into it.
