Hey there...
Is there any particular reason to why you feel down??? Bad home life, abusive parents or anything like that????
I would highly recommend you talk to someone, a therapist would be your best option.. And before you say no to the idea I can honestly say it helps a lot! Im like you, i don't speak to anyone about how I feel and eventually got the better of me.. i started counslelling and must say that talking to someone I dont know about my feelings is a big help!!! You cant keep things bottled up inside you... Eventually it all becomes to much and by then it could be too late..... Your sis is really good to notice that you need to talk, let them help you... Thats all they want to do! Like I said if you cant talk to them try a someone you dont know...
Thanks! My sister has been helping me to find a psychiatrist covered by our insurance.I have never had a bad home life,abusive parents,or anything bad like that.Although my Dad is at times verbally abusive.I still haven't told them about the cutting,but I think I will tell a therapist about it before I tell them.
Thats really good that you are seeking help! Im happy to hear that! There is so much out there to help you.. Yes you should at least tell the therapist! He/she will help and give you ways to coping! Might even give you ideas as to why you do it! If you need someone to talk to you can always give me a PM! I dont mind helping..
Keep well

Hey there, I was a cutter when I was 13-17 years old and once when I was 18 and tried to commit suicide when I was 15. The scars aren't pretty and have to live with them everyday for the rest of my life. You definately need to go to a therapist sweetie and perhaps try some CBT. If you want anymore advice then I will be here, but you need to seek help immediately and it's good that you have taken the first steps to. You may think it's difficult and not want to do it, but telling your parents will take a whole load of anxiety and stress of your chest. Telling my parents was the best thing I ever did, so they could understand how I felt and help me through the difficult times.
I dont think you will be committed.. Not a hope in he!!... Dont worry about that!! therapy and maybe some TLC will help lol... the main thing is your looking for help! Thats the first and most important step in getting better!!! You can do it and you have a whole site of friendly and willing people here to keep you going!!!
Keep us updated on how you are doing..
