I have dealt with many emotional and psychological issues both personally and in my career. I've gone thru emotional, verbal and sexual abuse, severe depression, therapy, emotional hospitalization, sexual addiction diagnosis, divorce and suicidal ideations. So I've been there, I'm a healthy person now and in a healthy relationship. But I've definately learned from the School of Experience and I'd love to be able to help others with the knowledge that all that has brought me. I'm not judgemental but I will be very frank if with my OPINIONS.

Slitting your wrists and any other forms of self-mutilation or self harm is usually a way to give an emotional pain release thru a physical act. It may be a result of some guilt you are placing on yourself or as a result of being bullied at school. Either way it's very hard for parents to comprehend how someone could do such a thing. They may think you are attention-seeking. You need to seek emotional therapy, this isn't a physical problem, it's a psychological one. If nothing else reach out to the counselor or nurse at your school, under HIPPA laws they have to protect your confidentiality but they will help you figure out where to go for help. Remember the crisis hotline is toll free and confidential 1 800 273 TALK.
