Your friends might not wanna tell anyone because they dont want to hurt you. Its bad on their part but they are trying to stay true to you and they dont want you to get mad.. Divorce is one of the toughest things that teens have to go through.. Dont hide your feelings, If you need to talk to someone talk to a counselor, a friend, therapist, or a psychiatrist. Self Mutilation is a hard thing to describe.. There are other alternates that you can do other than cut yourself to release your anger and pain.. Tell your parents that you want to see a psychiatrist and tell them whats going on.. becasue no one is gunna be able to help you if u keep hiding it.. Your parents surely will get you help and seek whats best for you..You cutting yourself is def. not going to get your parents back together.. its better to be happily divorced than unhappily married.. Dont punish yourself for this your parents couldnt work out together and its not your fault.. DONT BLAME YOURSELF! I hope everything works out well...PLease get help! <3 Paris Marie [ pArIs_mArIe's advice column | Ask pArIs_mArIe A Question ]
