I dont think they will believe me =(?!
Question: I dont think they will believe me =(!?
Hi Im 16 and I cut myself!. I cut my legs and I just started on my forearms!. I want to get help but because Im afraid a doctor or whoever I talk to wont believe me because the cuts arent very deep!. Im afraid that they will tell me that there is nothing wrong with me but im also afraid that they will lock me up in a hospital!. I know I have depression and I know I need help!.
How can I tell my mum and how can I make her believe me!?

Answers:
Just tell your mum! Im sure that she will believe you!.
Show her and the doctor your cuts-even if they arent very deep they still show that you have a problem!. And I dont think they will put you into a hospital-if they do its probably because your suicidal in which case its for your own good!
Just go get the help you need and
Good Luck!!! =>Www@Answer-Health@Com

gone throught it!. if your mother is strict then good luck!. if a teacher finds out, so will your mother!. they will suggest therapy, you mother will take the chance!. you will hate therapy, and then leave!. let me tell you this: if your depressed and you cut to be happy, arent you still depressed!? or are you doing it to fit in!? so people will give you attention!. the only person you are hurting is yourself!. if there isnt anything wrong with you, then why do you do it!? no they wont lock you up in a hospital!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
the doctor would never tell u that u are making it up! if they did u could get them into trouble!. They are there to help u even if they personally dont believe u in their own minds!.
I am a psychiatric nurse and you would only get locked up if u were a threat to yourself or to someone else (you would have to be cutting your wrists quite deep to cause scars and be wanting to commit suicide to be actually sectioned in a mental hospital)!. You can still get counselling and therapy on the nhs for what you are doing but please dont worry about being sectioned!.
The doctor will be very understanding!. And your parents should be too!.
Tell them or write them a letter that sometimes when u feel down u scratch ur skin and want to hurt urself and it makes u feel better!. It doesnt matter how lightly u are doing it, its still self harming to your body!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Be honest with her!. It's scary!. I know, I've been there!. But you have to take care of yourself!. If for any reason your mom doesn't believe you, find another trusted adult that you can talk to!. I hope your mom listens and supports you, but there are lots of people in this world who can help you and will be there for you!. Be strong and take care of yourself!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
My friend had the same thing going on in her life!. She talked to some people in this great organization called S!.C!.A!.R!.S!. (stop cutting and recognize the suffering)!.
The owner abandoned the organization so she took over!.
I would talk to her through this myspace, she is really a great person, she's 14, but she knows more about this world than people three times her age, I would just talk to her, she can help you!.

Tell her cause and effect style!. Because of your depression, you cut yourself!. Any adult will probably believe that because it is completely logical!. Don't worry about her believing you!. All you need is help!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Even if you just had thoughts about it they would all take it very seriously so deep or not they will all care!. You won't get locked up maybe put on some pills to help though!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
