When I cut myself I told a friend and without realizing we were standing with our backs faced to this one teacher, that teacher told guidance who told my parents. If something is risking your life then confidentiality doesn't not work in guidance. But before I told my friend about me cutting I had confided in a different teacher, anonymously though, but she eventually (after maybe a month or so of e-mails) found out who I was. Lucky for me she's kept my secrets (I hope) Confide in someone, whoever you feel most comfortable with. I had anonymously e-mailed my teacher, I used a yahoo e-mail adress because they're free, and I just randomly e-mailed her one day. You could write something like If you had a student that cut themselves what would you do. My e-mail was a lot longer because I'd e-mailed her previously with a problem because I had felt guilty about a friends death, and so I just added stuff about now how I cut and stuff like that. She isn't my teacher anymore, so I don't really talk to her as much, just like say hi everyonce in a while. But ummm, definitley tell someone!! If you want a good website to go to, here's one that I recieved when I asked a question on advicenators about cutting... [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)

i would tell somebody.. preferably a friend because its easier to talk to them.. then if that doesnt help, just go to someone confidentialy or in person.. whatever is most comforable.. and just remember.. everything wil get better... and just be as happy as possible, but if you truly care about stopping cutting yourself.. then stop.. and it will feel great afterwards

Definitally tell a friend or an adult you can trust cuz cutting wont solve your problems and you could get a visious infection which would just make things worst so tell someone and they will try to help you get throught it, mmk?

You should tell the person you trust most. You just have to make sure that you can REALLY trust them! It doesn't matter who exactly ...just get it off your shoulders. If you do, it will get a little bit easier with someone to help you through it all.

You should go see a counselor.If you tell a teacher they'll probably tell your parents, and if you tell a friend it might be all around the school within 24 hours.A couselor is your best bet.

completelyincomplete answered Sunday January 23 2005, 11:13 am:
Definetly go to a counselor. Teachers tend to be more like a "Lets go tell her mom and get it over with" while counselors are more like "Lets see how she feels about the situation first. Tell your good friend(s) too. Tell the friend(s) that you know won't gossip about it. Tell the friend(s) that will help you through these tough times. And rememeber: You're the best person you know.

RyLei answered Sunday January 23 2005, 1:06 am:
Yes. Of course you should tell someone. You dont want to do something your going to regret. And if people get you so pissed off and depressed that you want to cut, fuck them. You shouldnt let people bother you hun.
Hope I helped

You should definetly talk to a counselor or a fried/parent. A minor depression may lead to something very serious, it can even lead to a suicidal situation. Talk to someone immediatly!

i suggest a youth pastor. mine really helped me when i was in that situation. or if you don`t attend church, try a Christian friend or teacher/counselor. don`t keep this to yourself but only tell someone you trust.

Yes you should go see a councelor, because if you dont your depression will get to the point where it causes and in-balence of chemicals in your brain and you get a prolonged depression one that needs professional help, and trust me you dont want to get that, i have it unfortunatly.


Good Luck.
