I did the stupid thing of constantly cutting my arm and now marks on my arm are obvious. and the last time I kept my school jumper on all day I fainted halfway through the day! ever since I hardly ever where my jumper. I just cut in the wrong place. and all the girls stare at each other when getting changed. they look at my arms all the time
she would nag me if she saw any of this! and say why am I going on these sights anyway coz family is constantly being talked to by social services. I live in wales. I kinda hate it here. adopted at the age of about 3. taken away from parents at 2. adoptive parents split up at about 8 an moved to wales in time for year 4. self harm started a year ago
Blimey, you're 'brave'! I go to great lengths to cover up my arms, even wearing a long-sleeved top to the gym - which is not in the least bit comfortable. I also make sure I've ALWAYS got a cardigan on when at home. That would be my worst nightmare actually, people 'finding out'.
With regards to controlling how more and more people find out, this will sound stupid, but maybe just cover up?
As a side note, really think about what you're doing. Think about when you're older and have children, and have to explain to them why you have scars all over your arms.
That's the main thought that's stopping me from doing it at the moment, and also the realisation that it doesn't actually achieve ANYTHING!
You do sound like you want people to know. If that's the case, please go to your doctor, and they will refer you to someone who can help.
Best of luck :)

I do have counselling at school and mum treats me like a baby and goes with me practically everywhere. I wouldn't be able to talk to a doctor on my own properly. I will ask next time coz having a blood test on Halloween. I will keep ya updated and anything anyone unsure about just comment and I will explain
If you're having a blood test, you'll have no choice. The nurse will see it and start probing you.
I'm not really the best person to give advice on this subject, but I will tell you one thing I've learnt, talking is the most powerful tool you can have.
I have never been one to 'open up' to people, but since I've started being open and honest with a couple of people, it's really really helped. You don't feel so alone :)
