Mine also asked point blank, before she was even my T, and surprised the heck out of me. She just said "Do you ever hurt yourself?" I fumbled for an answer because I didn't want to lie. I sort of told her a half-truth. I said that yes I had cut myself a few times lately (true), but that I wasn't doing it anymore (half-true. The last time had been a few days ago, and I didn't WANT to do it again, but I couldn't exactly say I've "quit" lol. I think she knew it was sort-of the truth (lol). She didn't push it any farther. If I remember right, I think she just nodded and didn't say anything else.
