hey,

i self harm aswell, but fortunatly nobody knows, well any of my friends, parents ect.  why dont you just explain to them that its none of their buisness ? talk to a teacher at school about this and maybe he/she can talk to the people who are coming up to you? alternativly you can phone childline, and i defo know that they will give you advise.

take care :)

That must be so hard, they have no right to ask you and you are under no obligation to tell them!!!!

I know this is going to sound impossible but try and ignore them if they are being mean and making it out to be a joke.

I know from experience that they'll care a lot now but in a few weeks someone else will be the focus point, it  hopefully won't last long and they'll stop bothering you.

and if they are just concerned or whatever about you just say you don't want to talk about it but thanks and maybe thank them for being there for you even if you don't  mean it.

If it gets really bad ask an adult who either knows or you trust what u should do, they may be able to help you out.

Try not to deny it outright though because then they'll make a big thing of it and pester you even more to tell them. People can be really, really, really nosy!!!

Really hope this helps even a tiny bit and i know it sounds really tough. All the best

xxxxx good luck  xxxxxxx

I've self harmed for 2 yrs, im now yr9, it first started coz it made the pain go away from me being kicked out of a school show. Today was the first time anyone found out, nd now 4 people do, 1 of those self harmed b4, so she knows how it feels, nd their halping me. There's a service at my school that i can go to, maybe there's one at yours? my friend who selfharmed before goes for anger management, nd she said tht so i dnt get hurt anymore, if i dun stop in 3 weeks, i gtta go with her to them to talk about it. I feel a lot better now some1 knows. And with my school service thingy, my parents dont have to know either.

 

I want to make it stop. But it's difficult by yourself..

 

I want to make it stop..

Y dont you
