Hope you feel better.

Thanks; I actually feel just fine I just don't wanna break any deals.

I, too, have a hard time figuring out this kind of thing too lol.

I don't necessarily feel the need to hide it. I just prefer not to contact her or bother her outside of session if not necessary. I would be willing to tell her next session, but if this was part of the agreement, because our relationship works, I want to hold up my end.

I think it would be good to tell her regardless of whether or not it falls under your agreement...

My hesitation mostly has to do with if i'm supposed to tell her or not. I don't necessarily report "all self harm" to her. I'm just referring to this one incident that fell during the agreement time. Although, I did consider that I probably should have told her
before I did it - but that's too late now. I think I will just go ahead and inform her but I'm not sure it applies. Perhaps to be safe though.
Thanks everyone!
