So, I told my mom I was cutting myself. Well, actually I write things like this on paper, have my mom read them, and then she has to answer back on paper. She was unbelievably understanding and said she would see if there was a sooner first appointment to my therapist. There was a lot of 'I love you's and one of her answers made me cry. When I was waiting for my mom to answer, I unintentionally grabbed a hair tie and put it on my wrist. Now I'm realizing that whenever I want to cut myself, I can snap myself instead. So I'll probably cut myself twice a day instead of like, five times a day. Guys, you've been so supporting an I am getting through this. Thank you.

I'm really glad you got help, I know it can take a lot of courage to open up about things like self harm to loved ones. I hope you'll be able to stop cutting fully, but this is a great start to recovery. If you need anything were always here for you!!

Great job! After two times, maybe you can bring it down to one then eventually maybe you will never feel any need. I am very proud of you!
