Have you ever been caught?

My mom saw my scars I tried to explained her I was feeling depressed and this was a way to relieve my emotional pain, she called me a freak and attention-seeker XD

Seriously?! That's awful

Yes! and I lost my job because of it

Oh my gosh I am so sorry that happened to you
I really hope things are a bit better now

That sucks! ((gentle hugs))

Losing my job was all for the best.
i found a better one later.

That's good!

My sister saw my fresh wounds. I told her that I scraped my wrist on the cement pavement.
I can just imagine what was going through her head...!

I got busted, twice when I was 11 years old.

The first time, I woke up from a nap and my father was standing over me fuming. He said, "So you want to ****ing kill yourself?! I'll help you!"

The second time, was when I had my left arm shredded and lying in a towel covered in blood. I went to the bathroom to wash away the evidence, and patch it up, but before I succeeded, my sister waltzed into the bathroom and freaked out.

Both very annoying when you want to keep your activities and self harm private.. I only learned to be more secretive, until I was willing to sacrifice control, and I got help.

Don't miss those days...

Love,
Marilyn

I used to like to self harm in the woods until my mom noticed I was gone and so was my pocket knife. She called the police and I wound up inpatient. I think I was 20 at the time.
