Hi, Howlin Mad, welcome to PsychCentral (PC).

What would you like to tell your tutors and why? "Predicting" that you will self harm if you do poorly on exams and wishing to let them know so. . . what? They cannot deal with your feelings, you have to do that and decide on your own actions and you are worrying about something in the future; no one can know what is going to happen yet but seeing the situation and making such a prediction, while it can't "make" the situation come true is a bit of a set up inside yourself with making it come true?

Can you tell your tutors about past behaviors you have engaged in and ask them about getting a counsellor to help you in the present so you don't repeat those behaviors and for their help in studying so you are more confident of doing well on your exam?
