I have been trying different things to keep my self from SHing and one of the things i have been doing is drawing on the places I want to SH.
The problem is that my younger are noticing the drawings and if they tell my mom (she doesnt like it when i draw on myself) i will get in trouble and have to explain it. Should I just explain it before hand before my sisters get to her and make it seem i am just dootling on my self, or wait till she ask? |

I personally think it would be best to explain it before your sister tells your mum. Telling your mum now and reassuring her that drawing on yourself is helping you stop and recover is far better than her telling you off for it and then you explaining as if you tell her first your mum will be in a carmer mood.
Good luck

Okay, well I would definitely explain beforehand, as this would stop so much suspicion.
However, from the way you were speaking, it sounds as though your mum doesn't know that you self harm, in which case, it may be more difficult explaining. If you just say something along the lines of "I doodle on myself" then it might sound a bit weird. Sorry, I don't know how to best tell you how to tell her, but you may want to consider telling her the truth about your SH. She'd be able to get you professional help. I hope things get better <3 LiveHelpOperator|TalentCommittee RIP Grandad xxx |
