Sometimes my advice is good advice, and sometimes it's just an opinion. Sometimes people don't take good advice (ironically.) If everybody would just talk to each other, we'd have world peace, so you probably won't see "just talk to them" in my column.
I worked as a Registered Nurse for a few years so I know a little about health.
I think and read about spiritual things. I answer spiritual questions without trying to convert anyone to my own beliefs. I'm a non-denominational Christian, but I believe everyone has a path to follow, and God is patient, so I answer spiritual questions from where you are.

There's a group of girls at my school who have been cutting themselves. I talked to my counseler and he said that it was the right thing to tell him, and he would have me remain anonomys. One of the girls and she found out from my counseler. She got mad at me, and she said that I should mind my own buisness. Was she right, or was that the right thing to do?!? Please help!!!!!!!!!

Yes, you did the right thing. Cutting can either be a suicide attempt, or a self mutilation thing, which is very different. Either way it isn't good for them, and even if they are mad at you, you still did the right thing.
But I would also keep in mind that the counselor didn't act very professionally by letting them know how he found out.

I quite agree! I'm sort of mad at my counseler for lying to me. I thankyou very much for your advice!!
