I was forced into telling my T, but overall their reaction was very calm. They did want to know if it was a suicide attempt (no), if I ever thought of using it as a suicide attempt (no, I had other methods planned), and we talked about why I did it, what I got out of it. She wanted me to make a contract but I told her that I knew I'd break it. I think we ended up compromising that if I ever cut so deep I was worried about it needing stitches I would go to the doctor and I would tell her.
