First things first; you cannot be sent to jail for being mad at th world. TO be sent to rehab you have to be very sick and being mad at the world sound more like being a typical 16 year old teenager than being very sick.
Yes, typically teenager do get mad at the world, it's a hormonal thing a teenager goes through while going through puberty. Now the cutting is not typical and could be a sigh of teenage depression. Don't go all hyper at the word depression. Teenage depression is also caused by the hormonal imbalance brought on by puberty usually easily correctable with medication and talk therapy. Back in the dark days of your grandparents teenage years this was looked at as a phase we would grow out of. Today we know better and doctors can help you.
As to what you should do. You should tell mom and dad about your cutting. This is not typical teenage behavior and should cause them to stop yelling and see that you are in need of a doctors care.
You do not have to tell either of your parents, all though I don't suggest you don't tell them. At 16 you have medical confidentiality and can seek a doctors care without their knowledge or consent. Anything you say to or are treated for by any doctor or medical practitioner is strictly confidential and may only be released by you upon written permission to that practitioner. This includes your parents.
What is happening to you is not normal though is quite common among teenagers today. This is not something that you will grow out of or can help yourself with. You need the help of your doctor and possibly a talk therapist.
I can't stress enough how important it is that you tell mom and dad about your cutting. I expect once you do a whole new dynamic will happen in your relationship with them. They will want to help you get help.
While your deciding on what path to follow if you get an overwhelming urge to cut; DON'T. Instead pick up the phone and dial 911 or your areas emergency number. Cutting is dangerous and can be a life threatening emergency. Calling for help is the proper thing to do. Tell the call taker that you are a cutter, that you feel the need to cut yourself and you need help. The call taker will send the proper help to your home, even if mom and dad are home.

NO you will not go to jail or to a rehab thingy. Im sorry your going through all this, it's alot for a teenager to handle. You do need help however, and seek it immediately. Don't be scared of things that are going to help you such as therapy and medication. I know what you are going through cause I went through something similar and it was very difficult. If your family is always asking is cause they care and are concerned, worried. try to confide in them and trust them so they can lead you to the road to get better.
Don't be scared, you are not going to jail, and they won't forcibly enter you in a mental institute unless you try to commit suicide or unless you want to go for treatment. so please talk to your family.
On a personal level, I used to cut too. but i was a little older than you already out of high school. I still have scars. I went to an institute 3 times in one yr. 2 times my choice and 1 time not my choice. It was really hard cause i couldn't explain to anyone how I felt, I just know I felt like shit and I wanted it to go away. I finally choice to get help cause i couldn't take it anymore and I desperately wanted to live a normal life. Now Im not gonna say it was an easy road but it was well worth it, I did go to therapy and took medication for about a year and I was able to get the help and move on with my life. I am telling you this cause I don't want you to think the worst. Instead think it really can't get worse than hurting yourself. I really hope you do the right thing for you. you can inbox me whenever Good LUCK!!
