Who can I talk to about self-injury?!
Question: I cut all through middle school and suffering a recent break-up I started on up again. I also ended a year of being anti-drug/alcohol buy getting drunk off my *** and dropping bombs.
I don't want therapy, therapists piss me off. I want someone my age who I can trust (High school)

I am not your age now, but I did have a time when I was in my teens where I cut myself a couple of times. I cut myself on my face and is usually was after some girl either broke up with me or liked me at one time, then no longer did. I think in my mind at the time it was a way of punishing myself because I had thought someone would like me and did not, so I cut myself to basically teach myself a lesson that nobody could ever like me because I was not good looking. Very low self esteem when i was in my teens. I don't know if that is how you justify cutting yourself or not. And yeah I went to therapy and was on antidepressants and tranquilizers. I know the therapy did not help much. I did manage to gain self esteem and get over that part of my life.
hm. OK i definitely know how you feel, i myself am a self-injurer. i find that talking to a close friend, like a really close friend who you know wont spew it all over your school helps alot. therapy pisses me off too. but anyhow...yea a close friend who you can trust and know wont tell anyone. but if it gets very serious...you cant get pissed if they tell your parentals, this is really in your best interest. also i find that SMA (self mutilators anonymous)meetings are actually do some good, although your parents have to find out in this case. one final option here: talking to people confidentially helps...you could try just writing a letter, and mailing it to any address you can find, don't include a return address, just write down your feelings, and thoughts and send it.
