Maybe give some free advice about: Families?
Your Mom is likely to be freaked and upset, but ultimately, she will be SO thankful that you were able to come to her. Asking for help is sometimes the hardest thing in the world to do and I say you should tell her for sure. Two suggestions: Timing is important. Don't wait for the "perfect" time because there will never be a "perfect" time, but try to find a time when your Mom is not preoccupied with other things and when you know that she has the time to listen. (For example, on her way out the door to work - not a great time). My second suggestion is not to feel totally deflated by her initial reaction if it's not what you were expecting. Remember, you've had time to think about this conversation and choose your words. Your Mom will be hearing this for the first time and could possibly react in an illogical way. Telling her that you love her and trust her and that you are coming to her because you need help should be a good way to start your discussion. Best of luck to you!
Kind wihes,

Yeah, tell her. She'll probably be hurt, but she'll be glad that you told her so that she can help. I really don't know what you could say. Maybe you could just show her, and I'm sure she'd get the point .. Or you can just sit her down and tell her there's something you really need to talk to her about, and be like, "i've been cutting myself and i really want to stop, so i was hoping you could help me to get some help." Or something like that.

you deffintly,without a doubt,need to tell your mom.especially since you two are super close.she truly loves you and she will be happy you actually told her that you have been doing it.its always better to get everything out - even if it costs shock.cutting is a serious thing and you need to get help - moms are a great way to go!keep me updated!

Hey sweetie! I just wanted 2 say that I am so sorry that u are going through this. I've heard that it can be a scary and addicting thing and you may feel scared to tell people too. But before anything drastic happens. you should definately tell your mom. if u say ur close with her... then that should make it easier 4 u. first...u should ask 2 talk 2 her in private so a snotty sibling dosent get the 411. and sit her down and tell her the truth. ask her not 2 judge u, but tell her that u want 2 stop and get help. ur mom is most likely going 2 be proud of you for coming 2 her and telling her that u need help. i know u said that it would kill ur mom... but what would devestate her the most, would be looing a child. u need 2 get help be4 ne thing serious happens and ur mom with help u do that. Good luck and i hope i helped u! ask me ne thing ne time! xOxO, aLeX!

You need to be open and frank with her. Explain things in a calm way, along with your feelings and why you're cutting yourself. If you don't freak out, it'll make it easier for her.
The next step for you guys would be to talk to a psychologist or guidance counselor. Cutting yourself is a serious issue and there should be no reason you need to. A psychologist or doctor can prescribe a regimen or treatment for you to help you feel better, sometimes with medication.

yes you should definately tell her...you should be like "don't say anything until I am completely finished and listen to every word...i cut my self and i really wanna quit...i need help...you're my mom and i love you...and i'm sorri for keeping this from you for so long" good luck much luv

Please do not post the same / very simialr question multiple times. This slows down how quickly your question will be approved, and in future will get you banned.
I think telling your mother is important, as it's the first step in getting help and support. Wait for the right moment when she's not busy, make sure there aren't things like TV or other siblings around which could distract her and tell her you have something important to tell her. Good luck.

you so should cuz u need help for those kinda things....

yea you should defiantly tell her.I mean i think not telling is worse then telling her.Hope i helped.

i think you should deffinatly tell her, yes she may be upset but she will be happy you came to her for help if yous are close im sure yous can work it out togather

yes i think if you want to you really should--tell her what your problem is and what your hving trouble with.. tell her you didn't want to but you just didn't know any better.. she'll be there for you and make sure you tell her taht your sorry n you didnt know what to do n start crying so she'll understand =P haha.. ((yah way to suck up!))

you should definitely tell her. she'd be upset, but she'd be happy that you went to her for help and that you dont want to continue to hurt yourself.

tell her....u need help...ur hurtin urself thts not good. TELL HER
]
I would tell her A.S.A.P. She may get up set, but think of it this way, it will hurt her more if you don't.- Fallin2Pieces
