I was at therapy today with my mom in the room and we were talking about my self harm. I was defending myself because my mom was upset that I cut a few days before family came over and I guess I didn't do a good enough job hiding it. So I was saying how it wasn't even that big of a deal and my therapist said that I was right, since I obviously wasn't cutting deep enough to cause myself harm that there was no problem with me continuing to do it. And my mom just agreed!! She started talking about how deep she used to cut and how my cuts were "barely scratches" and idk I should feel relieved that they're off my case but I just feel like the biggest piece of crap in the world. Shouldn't they be at least trying to stop me? And I know it's not a competition at all but it really bothered me that they downplayed my problems just because my mom's were worse
