I am completely new to any online forums and resources for mental illness, so I apologize for any mistakes I make on here because I truly don't know what I am doing. I thought I should give it a try because I love that people from anywhere can support each other on here.
I have struggled with depression for the past couple of years, but up until recently it wasn't much of a big deal with my family. I don't think they really realized how much pain I was in, I'm not sure. I have been off and on in therapy, and I am currently working with my doctor and my therapist with trying different medicines (three different ones in the past three months) and trying to get to a better mental state. Anyways, about two years ago I was SIing quite frequently, but I never told anyone because I didn't want to. I stopped after doing it for about four months. Recently I started doing it again. Before I started medication and really working hard on my emotions. But for some reason I feel like maybe I need to tell my doctor and therapist about it. I told my now therapist about how I used to in the past, but I haven't told her that I started doing it again. I never told my doctor about it, and I feel like I am lying to her when she asks me certain questions. Is there any reason that they should know? I just don't know what to do and this has been saying on me... Your advice is greatly welcomed
