I'm thinking about telling my mom...but I'm mostly scared because I don't know how she'll react. Will she use it against me in an argument? or spend tons of money on a T?I've been thinking about it this past week.I don't want her telling her friends ... I just want to tell her so bad but I don't want to regret telling her ..My mom is just..she's different. So maybe there's another way of ..telling her?

Your mom is your mom. No matter what happens, she loves you. Remember that.
It's great that you've been thinking about telling your mom. I really, really, really think you should. If you're worried about her telling her friends, mention it and ask her not to.
Don't worry about how she will react, the important thing is that you get this burden off your chest so both of you can take the next step towards you feeling better.
I do hope you tell your mom. Best of luck! ♥

..I agree with NeverStoppedCrying

I agree =)

One thing I noticed - you say you worry about her spending tons of money on a T. Would that be a horrible thing? I know money is not easy to come by, but I think one of the most important things to spend it on is our health. For me health and food come first! And this is about your health, and your body, and your future. And that matters so much =)

I don't know your mother but maybe asking her specifically to not tell her friends might help

The thing is My mom works a ton..I don't like her having to spend a bunch of money on me because I'll be honest my mom has always spoiled me because I was an only child and it was easier back then you know? and we just moved like around May and we are moving again after my freshman year and we are going to buy a duplex with my mom's boyfriend. So her money is really tight. The last thing I want is her to worry about me cutting when she does everything for me .I don't want her to think I don't appreciate what she does for me and that's not why I cut. So I'll...think about it I will definitely tell her sometime before my freshman year is over. I will promise that to myself and everyone else.

Your mom deserves to know that you are in pain.

I changed my mind -.-'' She proved to me yesterday she won't be able to handle the truth. I want to hurry up and graduate,I need to get my own life.Maybe she'll leave me the hell alone.

I hope you realize that your mom will always love you no matter what. She may worry about you but thats what moms do. If you don't think you can tell your mom, maybe you can tell the school counselor because then they can start working with you. Best of luck!!

What happened with your mom?

[turquoisesea]

what happened with your mom? I think that though she would be worried etc, it's better than keeping her in the dark. And, you don't have to feel guilty for her doing good things for you - as a mother that's her choice. Why don't you think she can handle this now?

[Katix3]

We got into it nothing really important and she basically called me crazy. -.-'' On my father's side they have history of suicide and depression some relatives are in a Asylum and she uses that against me a lot. Oh I haven't cut in 3wks :3

[turquoisesea]

oh that's not fun =( I hope you realize though that it doesn't make you "crazy" but it is an illness and it can be helped. Just because this is happening doesn't mean you end up in an asylum *hugs*

Just wanted to say Congrats on Not cutting in 3 weeks!! It may be longer now or not but either way you went 3 weeks without doing so you should be proud. I'm proud of you!! Keep your chin up!!
