When i told my counselor about my self harm, she called my parents and made me tell them, and I felt terrible. Everyone at school alienated me and it was horrible. People still look at me weird, 2 years later.
Shevanna Young Actually her counselor was kind of in the wrong. They won't call your parents without your consent unless you're expressing violent behavior towards them or others and when they think you're close to attempting suicide. The counselor should've gotten her permission.
I started cutting on my wrists. My counselor he saw my wrists bandaged up and he made a big joke out of it. My whole class laughed at me. Everyone said "stop being so damn dramatic." I felt so disgusted with myself.
I have cuts on my wrists. I always try to hide them and I’m about to run out of long sleeves to wear. I’ve been scared about that. Don’t let them get to you. Stay strong
I agree to the fullest. My mom told me that depressed people are those whom were weak in their spirit, and that demons got the chance to enter their body and ruin them. Those demons keep whispering bad things to people's minds and make them as down as possible which leads people to commit suicide.
I self harm. I get it. Everyone you are amazing and schools now a days SUCk we need to stick together and push aside school and just think about that we are loved
"No time" is the first reply to your comment and we all agree. You can't meet that kind of people in real life. It's an improbable task. There are still good people in the world at the same time. You just have to look really hard for them..........
My mum is a nurse, so i’m scared she’s just gonna turn around and say “You do it for attention, you have nothing to be upset about” But she has no idea when i’m sat in my room with a blade.
Ya see that's why I take a pencil and scratch so deep it dosent bleed but still causes the same effect as a cut, so it will disappear in a day so they won't leave scars and people won't judge me for it
I never told anybody about my self-harm, except for my closest friends. One day, I forgot to wear my bracelets and one student saw, then they told the counselor. Every week, the counselor would see me. People started getting suspicious. A few weeks later, someone told that I was self harming. Nobody hung out with me anymore and my teachers treated me differently. I’m so sorry for what happened to you.
yes, and I would be sent back to the mental hospital I had to sign stupid papers for so I just keep it to myself so I can pretend to be happy with my friends cause I don't want to be in a tiny little room by myself.
Yeah... I started cutting because, I know it might sound silly, I was jealous of my little brother. He always took the attention. I remember when I stopped for 2 months before it happened. my dad called me to help him on his homework. I complained so he told me to leave. I stayed because I felt guilty but my dad kept yelling,"Get out of here! Just get the fuck out of here!", I ran to my room and cried. I opened my drawer and cut my arms over and over. I was snapped out of my daze when I saw blood. I looked into the mirror. I thought I lost it, I began laughing. I laughed and laughed. I laughed but cried at the same time. Laughing while the tears were pouring down. Laughing at myself...
ZARG 0 I’ve seen a lot of cringey things in my life but I NEVER wanted someone to end their life because of it. It’s never too hard to be nice and want someone to be happy. Open your eyes and see that she has went through so much that you would never be able to understand even with fine eyesight and ears. I pray you go to hell.
I stopped selfharming after doing it for 3 months. I am really proud of myself and i hope people in the comments stop aswell. Know that you matter and you werent given a life for no reason.
let me re-explain Depression can be described as a "not everyone is happy" lets just say i don't want people to waste there time with me. but thats my sub-concous, maybe i could be bipolar, but i'm not going to self diagnose.
cutting is not for attention (though there can be people that do it for that reason) people cut themselves to run away from the emotional pain by turning it into physical pain.
Ok so this is my story. Age 10 (maybe 11) I was very upset, I was failing in school and stress and shit. Umm... So I took a box cutter from my mom's shelf and.... Did the worst thing in my life and it was the worst decision I had ever made, I did it constantly. Thighs arms and wrists. I it was insane and terrifying my and my mom found out because of the damned school and was in the hospital for 8 days and was put on Prozac. Age 11 1/2 And I became anorexic now I'm turning 12 in a few weeks and still going through it all. :( It's hard. But besides all that if anyone needs help. Ask me, I can give you my Instagram or number and you can vent or talk, because if I can't help me I can help someone else. Edit: I am no longer anorexic and I got the help I needed and suggest everyone to find the help you need.
Hi ace this is my story when i was 10 my ante die and got really sad so i just wanted to die then i a girl with cut and i asked her about it so after that i got a box cuter and cut my thighs because i owes wore Jeans so nobody else sall them but then i cut my wrist, ankles, thighs, and hips and i did these all on x-mas break so i whant back to school (I'm in 5th grade ) and 1 of my friend came to me and said she self harm so i said i did too but one day her mom sall them and said i did to so she called the counselor. The next day i whant to the counselor and she called my parents (I'm 11 by now ) so thay talked to me about it. Now I'm still cutting but only my friend knows about it but i just mit have depression but thank you for your time. Be safe :3 BTW im still in 5th grade and 11
I told my grandmother I was depressed and she said that it was my fault that I want to die. I can't tell anything to her anymore for fear of being blamed.
Rain it's not ur fault because, just like feeling happy and scared,u can also feel sadness. It's not ur fault u feel a specific way. U r a human being and I think u can get through it. U seem like a very strong person so stay positive ✌🏼️❤️😔👏🏼🦄
fun fact: this happened to me...i lost friends....my parents lost trust in me...my teachers and the staff put so much pressure on me...and i hate almost everyone there now...so i absolutely understand...you're amazing, i love you for making this and it's made me feel better...💜
“Please, please, please keep yourself together and stay alive for me.” That hit me so hard. Thank you for making this type of context; a lot more people need to know about mental illness and it prevents future generations from having to suffer from exposure like you did.
I think schools (middle and high) really need to get all the kids in the auditorium and bring in a recovered self harmer and for that person to talk about addiction. People aren’t educated enough on self harm so schools need to bring it up.
I think it’s the opposite people talk about it so much it’s a trend at my school my old bestie started cutting in 7th grade she had forced herself into the popular group and ditched me they had never liked her but faked it for awhile then she started doing the private message things for her sc story and god people were cruel that’s when she started by 8th grade it was bad but no one was talking about her anymore she was still doing the chat things 24/7 no one was saying anything mean but she kept cutting she even told me she just wanted to see if people cared she would introducehwrself to people by saying hi I’m blah blah and I cut it was literally just for attention in the end she would wear short shorts and crop tops on winter days while it was snowing just to show them
Tara jick I agree, some people think cutting is a trend but I’m saying that your ex bestie needs to understand what she is doing to herself and that starts with her teachers and parents
I think they should do it in 4-5th, and middle and high, not just middle and high, because I know alot of people that are in 4-5th grades that need to learn about mental health, so they'll stop joking about killing themselves.
I was self harming,I was really hurting and I had to say something so I told my friends,at first it didn’t bleed,it would the scab.... At first I would use needles,then I started using razor blades... One day I was gripping my arms cause I was bleeding...I was wearing my moms hoodie that day so I had to keep secretly looking at my arms,then my friend realized and forced my to show my arms to her... I showed her my arms and I told her not to tell anyone,she told my other friends...and they scared me to death,they locked my into a bathroom stall,I started crying so I was let out of the stall,then the first friend that found out... Told the teacher.... Then my teacher walked up to me in class and told me my counselor wanted to see my so u went to the counselor...my heart was pounding...we had a talk about my self harm... She told my mom...and when me and my mom were talking about it...I was hiding something,she said “I know your hiding something...please tell me”I told her I’m lesbian,she supports me.. I still do it to this day,I still haven’t exactly haven’t gotten the help I need... But I use my nails now...but I’ve been keeping them short so I don’t hurt myself... That is my story...
I wish my friends did that to me cause it makes me sad that I'm keeping secrets from SO MANY people :( even my school counselor. I would tell her as long as I know that she wouldn't get mad or something idk but I'm glad you haven't hurt yourself as bad ever since
@@AjTheDarkestNarrator I'm also harming myself with nails and trust me this isn't such a big difference of doing it with a knife or doing it with nails... If u use nails u are scratching of your skin and there is also blood and all this shit...
... Im in middle school and im 12, I do it as well because my parents are homophobic and im pansexual and genderfluid, and im thinking about telling soneone like the counseler but 99% tell the school and your parents about it, only 1% acually help you.
I started to cut at age 6. Not because I was depressed, but because I love to feel pain and see the blood slowly appearing on my skin. I told this to my teacher, and she told me that I am a psychopath. But I don't have any symptoms of being a psychopath...
Yeah... My mom punishes me for self harming instead of helping me. She takes my phone away, I can't meet my friends, she forbids me to go horse riding and she said if I ever cut again she will beat me...so at least your parents are helping you and nice to you... 💔💔💔
Bella Kiraly I’m keeping you in my thoughts. I love horseback riding and training them. I wish we could meet in real life and be friends. I hope your able to find people who listen and care about you. Sending much love to you ❤️😍🐎
same thing happened to me...it'll be better...just remember that you can do better and i know it's gonna suck right now but trust me...there will be a time you can do all of that again and be twice as strong. maybe confide in some friends at school for some help with your mom and always remember there will be a better day. listen to some music and don't care what others say. you'll be ok. we're here for you. 💜
It is it made me cut to and it was getting worse and worse when my mom found out that I cut and she just screamed at me and told ne that I was fine and it's only stupidity making me cut and it just got worst and I wanted to die so I just cutted on my legs and stop cutting my arm's because it was easyer to hide the cut with long shorts and stuff... The arms cuts heald and my legs where full of cuts what where older because it was going to be summer soon so i stopped and stuff.... But sometimes I wanna cut again and i do but at places where it's visible and stuff like that and sometimes I have so hard suicidal thoughts that I cryed so much and wanted to die so hard 💔
Ive been re-watching this video for years. Every time that I feel like hurting myself or I'm just sad and crying and I feel like a mess i come back and watch this. I'd say 8/10 times it'll stop me from cutting. I really thank you for that.💜 you should be a therapist☺
*Does Self Harm* Teacher: "Go to the principal's office." *Goes there* Principal: "You are getting 3 detentions for self harm!" BECAUSE THAT WILL FUCKING HELP, RIGHT?! Fucking school ruins everything.
Imagen being homeschoooled and the person that finds out is your mom and every night you have to roll up your sleeve to show her you've stopped and feeling like you in trouble everytime you show her her. But she doesn't know you still cut on your thighs.
Is it just me or did anyone else use the excuse they were climbing a tree and got scratched or something? I used that so many times lol. This video really helped btw!
When I told my counselor about how I was feeling she straight up told me “stop lying to yourself, you’re sad and over acting”. Or something like that. She then told my parents and the rest of the school. I was pulled out of class almost every day to go to either her or another staff member. People would stare at me and look at me differently, it was terrible. One day I was so fed up with it; when I was called up to her room sat down and said “I’m fine will you all just leave me alone!” Walked out and I was never called back in there. Well not yet at least. Staff members, if you’re reading this I want you to go on your campus and do something about this “system” of yours and FIX it. I’m speaking for everyone who’s been through problems such as depression, anxiety, trauma, anything, we DON’T want to be told were insane, we DON’T want to be told we’re fine. we WANT to be feel sane and as if we are a normal person on campus. DON’T make us feel like we’re crazy. Give us patience, when we are ready to talk to you, we will. But until then, give us our space and let us figure our lives out.
My school is shit a kid said he was going to shoot up the school IN FRONT OF THE FUCKING PRINCIPLE AND SHE DIDINT DO SHIT he also tried to stab like 15 kids in the school and nothing happend to him
*I really want to tell a teacher or someone about me self harming - it's been 3 years now. But my friend did, and the school called her parents. She is now hiding in a hole of depression. I just want to stop.*
My English teacher from freshman year told my guidance counselor without my,consent and now I'm in therapy.... I don't have a problem with her trying to help like she a very good teacher but her class boring. I wish she asked me for my consent first.
@@Sam-wh3ik same bro, my dad checks every once in a while, the fourth or fifth time he cried, I couldn't believe my eyes, I stopped ever since, but I still want to do it since the kids in middle school suck.
Legit my mom asks me why I'm in a "bad mood" half the time and I say "I'm just tired" but like,,, then she threatens to take my phone away bc I'm supposedly staying up at night ?? It's pretty stupid but reasonable since she doesnt know I'm just really depressed
@@screamingcactus5505 same she tells at me saying your the worst daughter or your so rude I wouldn't want someone like you and when I told a doctor she lied to them and said I will take her to a mental help people (idk how to spell it and I forgot what it is) and she said to them that she always says she loves me but if that was true she would be saying it to me instead she brushed it off as soon as we went home its cause we had a test to describe how we feel every day and a lot of my answers where saying I feel like I deserve to die or I had dreams ever day that I would kill my family or my family would kill me and as I wrote this I looked at the all th scars on my wrist that are fresh and my mom said the bullying would stop once I went to 6th grad but it's even worse ppl make fun of me for cutting myself and I stabbed my self with my pencil and they said she reminds me of my brother she was that idiotc face she makes and they said this while I was cutting myself with the pencil is she trying to pop her veins off and I was trying to keep a straight face without looking in pain and they pretended to act me out by pretending to stab them self with a pencil and saying she probably wants to scream in pain and they made a stupid face looking like I was screaming I wanted to stab myself in my stomach right then there to see if they still be laughing
Some kid in school grabbed my arm, pulled my sleeve down, and held it up for all the kids to see. Then he yelled “look everyone, I know her secret!”. Yeah.. Edit: thanks for all the support I hope everyone’s having an awesome day :)
STUPID BITCH YOU NEED HELP YOUR PRETENDING TO BE THE VICTIM YOU ARE THE VICTIM BUT ALSO THE KILLER DO YOU GET IT? GROW UP YOU STUPID BITCH YOU LIVE IN A 1ST WORLD COUNTRY AND PROBALLY HAVE A NICE FAMILY JUDGING BY YOUR ROOM WHY ARE YOU SELF HARMING?
I first told my bff about my self- harm and we cried bc I did it like when I was 9 and she did it to and we went to the counselor and she was really nice about it and I told to not tell my mom bc i was scared and every one know about it and I never told anyone and my friends said that the counselor told everyone so they could KEEP AN EYE ON ME AND MAKE SURE THAT I NEVER DID THAT AND IT MADE ME FEEL SO BAD BC its just sad to make people feel that way when they have a reason...i still do it a little but i calmed down the reason I did it was bc of depresion I reasently feel better and I hope i can stop soon and get rid of it 😢❤
milana tew it really does but the people who don’t cut the self or harm them selfs don’t understand one of my best friends cut her self because she was fat but she was not super skinny but not fat she was normal and i would hug her and make her feel better and she slowly stopped and I’m happy for her now
I got suspended and taken out of my classes for three days after my school found out about my self-harm. The school now sees me as their "problem student" and they view me as someone who "needs to be fixed". plus, they day I left the school teachers had a conversation with everyone in the school about self-harm, so everybody knew it was me.
Back in the days, I had depression. 2 times. Bc of school. Then, I found out about self harm. I once was on a call with a friend and as we were talking I just whipped out the knife and sliced a bit. And that's not good. Then, my mom found out about em. "Keep doing this and I'll send you to rehab" she said. "I'D RATHER DIE" I said. So, that's when I started doing it in secret. That was about one and a half years ago.
There is this girl at my school who draws, we show each other our art during class. We give each other better techniques, ways to improve our art. Except the drawings are in blood. And made with a razor.
My school never found out about my selfharm but they caught my friend who went to a different school. It was absolutely awful... the principal made her strip while she and a counselor checked((which this totally uncalled for and inappropriate)) then they basically “arrested” her by getting the police to trick her into going into the cop car. They claimed that they were gonna take her home and tried to calm her down. But they freaking just took her to the mental institute where her parents had to fight to get her out. Social workers were sent to the parents for an investigation all while the staff in the mental institute were mistreating her. Apparently in the HS this has been a very common process to many mentally ill teens there. Truly disgusting and Idek how they’ve never been successfully sued
I almost got sent to a Mental Institute. My grandma was smart and didn't sign anything, so I was aloud to go legally. I'm still scared to tell anyone how I feel for the fear I'll get sent there.
in some states, like my own, they have a law where basically if someone (usually a teacher, counciler, therapist, etc etc) thinks you are in danger of hurting yourself or others you will be sent to a hospital until they think you are no longer a threat to yourself or others. your parent/guardian has no control of this either (so, like, they cant take you out of the hospital or refuse to let you go.) where i live its called a Baker Act. other than that i dont know much about it. I only know this much because i knew someone who got baker acted because she told her therapist she wanted to die.
no matter what, i’ll always come back to this video. this is probably my most favourite video on youtube. thank you so much for sharing this. we all struggle sometimes, and sometimes, it’s ok not to be ok.
Take the bottom of an old t-shirt and cut it so it’s thin and wrap it around your wrist like bracelets, or take cord or something else and tie it and make a bracelet.
they put me in a ‘mental hospital’ for a month and it helped A LOT. i regret cutting myself so much because i love myself but every time i look down at my arms it’s a reminder that i was a dark and sad person. whoever is struggling right now, it’s going to get better. there is a light at the end of the tunnel. i love you.
In 8th grade, my math teacher saw my arm had cuts, she sent me to the nurse and she talked to me and made me call my parents and tell them everything and it just made everything worse. When I got home I was grounded and kinda made fun of by my dad. To this day, I still am ridiculed and made fun of. One day at Wendy's, a worker had some scars and my dad pointed it out and said to me (verbatim) "look at his arm. you see those scars? you want to look like that? you want to look like him? no boy will like that acy." It still fucks me up to this day.
Thank you for sharing this painful experience you should not have had to go through at your school. I can feel your pain and it makes me hurt for you. You are a wonderful caring person and I want you to know that you are loved. It is tragic when a school, which is supposed to make you feel safe, does this. What they did was wrong and you are so strong to have survived it. I'm so sorry you were treated so badly.
Hi girl, I know how you feel, this happened to me a few months ago and had no help for it. Sometimes your own strength and mind is what you get... you need to get yourself better because no one realy cares. They say they do but it's something polite to say but just remember it's your life and you are the only one in controle of it. You're amazing keep going!
Why are people like this?... People be like, "Oh she/he is self harming he/she is different we need to punish them instead of help them." like what the fuck!? I'm a 14 year old girl who started cutting when I was 12. at the age of 13, 2 months before my 14th birthday, I was in my sister's room watching videos with my 2 sister's and my brother. suddenly my foster parents walk into the room and one of them goes, "I'm going to check your arms." and I refused at first but then i let her and she yells, "WHAT THE FUCK!?" at first i didn't cry. But then she told me, "Do you wanna turn out just like your mom!? is that why you're doing this!?" and it triggered me because I didn't. she didn't understand what i was going through! then she tells me to stop yeah like that FUCKING helps. I had to go and tell my counselor. and after that when i came to school I dont know how but everyone knew. I felt like an embarrassment and I literally started to become judged and started to be called an attention seeker and a whore. why do people do this to us? do they really think, " oh they're self-harming let's embarrass them and they'll know not to do it next time!" well they're wrong! They're just making things worse for us! I'm hurt and broken and torn inside and just people can't get that. and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who feels this way.
Damn.. You are very brave for sharing the story. I'm proud. And I went through the same thing not exactly in highschool, but yeah.. it was in my middle school years. I just want you to know ur beautiful, brave and very intelligent. And there is no WAY that someone is gonna put u down WE ARE HERE , all these comments and people are here for you ❤️🖤❤️
Teachers: always tell a trusted adult at school or home if you are having problems or just need to talk student: I'm hurting myself I don't know what to do :( Teacher: oh... you can trust me I wont tell anyone *tells everyone in staff, makes you feel more self conscious about what others look at you like* Student: another thing to worry about thanks this is how it plays out in my head if I say anything :(
Floof Fox The Therian same for me. i need help, but i know getting my school involved is just gonna make things worse (especially because one of my classmates went through it as well but she had it worse, i dont wanna trigger some bad memories) so if things arent gonna be better by the end of the year, i'll tell my mom cause i dont wanna harm myself any longer. if you desperately need help please try to get it somehow, even if it's by using different ways than directly telling your parents, just calling a hotline helps a lot, there are a lot of them all around the world. i hope things will get better for you soon. 💜
That happened to me like 3 days ago and my family knows but my mum didn't under stand why they had to tell her - '- and I have to talk to the principal on Monday
Okay but if they can't help you, it's not only a legal issue but a moral issue. How would they feel if someone asked them for help that they couldn't provide, and didn't say anything, and then the kid killed theirself?
I completely understand how you feel and I’m so sorry, you deserve so much better. You’re so brave for sharing and I really hope for the best for you ❤️
oh god im so sorry that's horrible. i really hope that you have gotten over self harm. I don't self harm but i know that it's one of the most emotionally draining and stressful things someone can do. I know that the sadness is probably still there, but i hope that you're at least doing better.
In 5th grade I had a best friend and one day I found her self harm scars and more recent cuts. I wanted to scream at her and hit her because I was so scared for her. But instead I just looked her in the eyes, and I didn't want to cry because I didn't want her to feel guilty or feel bad that she made me feel bad. So I grabbed a marker, and don't hate on me because I was 9 or 10, and I just wrote, "You Are Safe." With a smiley face. Probably could have written something better.. I was mostly scared. And I knew enough about depression that you can't force them to be happy. I just wanted her to see a happy thing when she wanted to look back on the sad things I thought she had stopped, until I learned she had been cutting her upper leg.
i once remember back in grade 9 (years ago) that i cut i arms completely from top to bottom with my depression. i tried to get out of gym class because my arms would be visible for a whole hour. i put 2 tenser bandages on both arms to make sure my cuts weren't visible when class started. but my dumbass gym teacher told me to take them off or she would take them off for me as everybody was staring at us arguing. eventually after arguing with her for 10 minutes, i took them off and she just stared at me for a solid 20 minutes basically and so did everybody else. i was so ashamed and embarrassed like nobody would believe. she told me "if you're gonna cut your arms, get out of my gym class!". i gladly dropped out of her class as soon as she said that
+Howsenselessdeath Howpreciouslife you've really helped me with my depression and I thank you for that, I've been able to live more and hide away alone less. Thank you for sharing your stories with us and crying with us!! ☯☯❤️
Schools have to by law asses the situation when they see a child with self harm scars and tell someone. My teacher told my head of house who told my parents
You were so brave for doing this honestly. It makes me feel so much better knowing i’m not the only one who went through this and being forced into isolation really does mess you up.
I'm so sorry you had to go through that. I've had multiple experiences with school officials just being shitty at their jobs and making me and others feel isolated, barely tolerated, and unwanted. It's honesty bullshit that these people's JOBS are to help us, and instead they bring us down. This video can help so many people in your situation that they are not alone. Thank you ♥️
When I was 13, now I'm 14, but when I was 13 and because I live in one of the most suicidal states in the nation, the 7-12 grades have to watch a video about depression and suicide. When I was in 7th we did the same thing but at the time I wasn't depressed or self harming. In 8th we watched the same video but I thought the school had forgot to do it that year so I told some of my closer friends that I cut. Long story short they wrote my name on a slip of paper that said "I'm worried about [insert name]" and if your name was written, you got sent to the councillor. I got home that night and my parents were sitting on the couch I had to stay downstairs and talk to them about it. And I broke down crying, and they still didn't let me to me room. Then my mom started crying thinking that I did it because of her. And my dad just say confused because he didn't understand why I did it. And I got sent to the councillor again that year by what I heard was my P.E. teacher, she's super nice. And I got home and it was the same situation. And I dont know how long I've been clean but I'm starting to feel better but still a mildly insecure about the scars. Hey thanks if you read all of this ❤
Wow the same story happened to me I'm in middle school one of my friends saw my cuts and was worried and went up to the counselor and told her that I cut myself and I'm depressed. When. I arrived at home my dad gave me a hug randomly. I went to set my stuff down in my room, then my dad told me to come and sit down at the dining table to talk to them and told me that he got called from the counselor. We talked and I said that I have only cut myself once and I'm not going to do it anymore. My mom started to cry and they asked if I needed a therapist I said no. My dad told me that I was going to get called up to the counselor and they were going to do a body check of me. I was so stressed out the next day when I went to school. Personally I love school but I feared it that day. I didn't get called up to the counselor yet but I stopped cutting to prevent myself from going up to the counselor.
Anna Svensen like being concerned about you? People live their lives, they’re not concerned about others around them, we’re all shitty living things and we’ll all die eventually so there’s no point in self harming.
Wow. You are absolutely beautiful. I can hear your voice trembling but you still managed to carry on. I just wanna give you a big hug! My school found out ab my self harm and were amazing. My teachers have helped me more than anyone i know. A few months later after my school found out ab my self harm, i got much much worse and my form tutor ended up having to walk around the school to find me as i had a bit of a mental breakdown and walked out of class and he had to talk me out of suicide. My teachers are the most pure and kind people and i wouldn't be here without them. They got me counselling and i can go speak to them whenever i want. I actually love my teachers so much 🖤🖤
When i told my counselor about my self harm, she called my parents and made me tell them, and I felt terrible. Everyone at school alienated me and it was horrible. People still look at me weird, 2 years later.
Similar things happened to me when I was in primary, and this is why I don't tell anyone anymore. :\
well it's illegal not to call parents if their child is a danger to themselves or others, so it's not your counselors fault
4 years later i still have no friends and people still talk about it
Shevanna Young Actually her counselor was kind of in the wrong. They won't call your parents without your consent unless you're expressing violent behavior towards them or others and when they think you're close to attempting suicide. The counselor should've gotten her permission.
+PopSicko they were allowed to, they shouldn't have but they were technically allowed.
can anyone else hear the trembling in her voice 😟
me 😔
idk how she doesn’t cry
on nvm she did cry
Yes😢
Yes
When students vent to their counselors about their feelings, the counselors
99% Call the student’s parents
1% *help*
Why is this so accurate?
I have depression and like nobody know cause I hide it
I acctually ended up going to a different counselor because of this
Gacha Llama Exactly, my councilor was a piece of shit for that.
That's why I'm afraid to tell mine
I started cutting on my wrists. My counselor he saw my wrists bandaged up and he made a big joke out of it. My whole class laughed at me. Everyone said "stop being so damn dramatic." I felt so disgusted with myself.

When I told my grandmother I had depression and was self harming, she said I was possessed. She wasn't wrong. Depression is a demon.
I have that book too bruh. Mark manson is a god
Pls post this everywhere
I agree to the fullest. My mom told me that depressed people are those whom were weak in their spirit, and that demons got the chance to enter their body and ruin them. Those demons keep whispering bad things to people's minds and make them as down as possible which leads people to commit suicide.
Depression is a b*tch
My grandma would say that too if i told her.

@@chloecorrigan2652 Well said. Period.
"No time" is the first reply to your comment and we all agree. You can't meet that kind of people in real life. It's an improbable task. There are still good people in the world at the same time. You just have to look really hard for them..........

My mum is a nurse, so i’m scared she’s just gonna turn around and say
“You do it for attention, you have nothing to be upset about”
But she has no idea when i’m sat in my room with a blade.

Ya see that's why I take a pencil and scratch so deep it dosent bleed but still causes the same effect as a cut, so it will disappear in a day so they won't leave scars and people won't judge me for it

Emo Bubble I’m not a week clean but the longest I’ve been clean was like 6 months? I lost count
I've only ever been about a week clean, which is when I'm at my dad's
I can relate
Ive cut every day for about 2 weeks(when I started) except yesterday I didn't for some reason but I did again today...
I was only clean because my family found out and now that eveythings calmed down I've started again

Walking Panda I think she meant to talk about it not about cutting herself..
To cut herself?
CGI Animates My Story no no to talk. About it p.
I never told anybody about my self-harm, except for my closest friends. One day, I forgot to wear my bracelets and one student saw, then they told the counselor. Every week, the counselor would see me. People started getting suspicious. A few weeks later, someone told that I was self harming. Nobody hung out with me anymore and my teachers treated me differently. I’m so sorry for what happened to you.
Anyone else to scared to tell their mom because you know she'll be like
"You just want attention you dont have a problem."
yes, and I would be sent back to the mental hospital I had to sign stupid papers for so I just keep it to myself so I can pretend to be happy with my friends cause I don't want to be in a tiny little room by myself.
Yes..
I told my mom I’m depressed and that’s exactly what she said. Honestly, it made it worse.
Yeah... I started cutting because, I know it might sound silly, I was jealous of my little brother. He always took the attention. I remember when I stopped for 2 months before it happened. my dad called me to help him on his homework. I complained so he told me to leave. I stayed because I felt guilty but my dad kept yelling,"Get out of here! Just get the fuck out of here!", I ran to my room and cried. I opened my drawer and cut my arms over and over. I was snapped out of my daze when I saw blood. I looked into the mirror. I thought I lost it, I began laughing. I laughed and laughed. I laughed but cried at the same time. Laughing while the tears were pouring down. Laughing at myself...
Not really but I dont want to tell her
I just say my cat scratched me :)
me too :)
ZARG 0 that’s not funny wtf is wrong with you , you can’t go round telling people to cut themselves
ZARG 0 I don’t think you realise how sick in the head that is gtfo
ZARG 0 I’ve seen a lot of cringey things in my life but I NEVER wanted someone to end their life because of it. It’s never too hard to be nice and want someone to be happy. Open your eyes and see that she has went through so much that you would never be able to understand even with fine eyesight and ears. I pray you go to hell.
ZARG 0 lmao why u here if u find her cringey, stop hating and try to make ur own content
I stopped selfharming after doing it for 3 months. I am really proud of myself and i hope people in the comments stop aswell. Know that you matter and you werent given a life for no reason.

This similarly happened in school in pe class
let me re-explain
Depression can be described as a "not everyone is happy"
lets just say i don't want people to waste there time with me.
but thats my sub-concous, maybe i could be bipolar, but i'm not going to self diagnose.
key word "Could"
cutting is not for attention (though there can be people that do it for that reason)
people cut themselves to run away from the emotional pain by turning it into physical pain.
A Leaf they think of it as a way out but don't relize that it dosent help it makes it worse
My mum smacked me right after my suicide attempt... my heart is still broken
Wtf, thats so messed up
@@winterbearlucy yes it is
my mum tried to tell me that life was okay when i tried
It's because she didn't knew what to do without you. She wanted you to know that it was a wrong doing. It wasn't the smartest way though
@@dashinypunnymarsking I guess you're right but all about they care is them selfs
Ok so this is my story.
Age 10 (maybe 11)
I was very upset, I was failing in school and stress and shit.
Umm... So I took a box cutter from my mom's shelf and.... Did the worst thing in my life and it was the worst decision I had ever made, I did it constantly. Thighs arms and wrists. I it was insane and terrifying my and my mom found out because of the damned school and was in the hospital for 8 days and was put on Prozac. Age 11 1/2
And I became anorexic now I'm turning 12 in a few weeks and still going through it all. :( It's hard. But besides all that if anyone needs help. Ask me, I can give you my Instagram or number and you can vent or talk, because if I can't help me I can help someone else.
Edit: I am no longer anorexic and I got the help I needed and suggest everyone to find the help you need.
ACE OF SPADES me pleaseeee
Hi ace this is my story when i was 10 my ante die and got really sad so i just wanted to die then i a girl with cut and i asked her about it so after that i got a box cuter and cut my thighs because i owes wore Jeans so nobody else sall them but then i cut my wrist, ankles, thighs, and hips and i did these all on x-mas break so i whant back to school (I'm in 5th grade ) and 1 of my friend came to me and said she self harm so i said i did too but one day her mom sall them and said i did to so she called the counselor. The next day i whant to the counselor and she called my parents (I'm 11 by now ) so thay talked to me about it. Now I'm still cutting but only my friend knows about it but i just mit have depression but thank you for your time. Be safe :3 BTW im still in 5th grade and 11
Idk if you still want to talk but it would be nice to have someone going through similar things to talk with
Your story is exactly mine...

But at the same time u also do it

“Please, please, please keep yourself together and stay alive for me.” That hit me so hard. Thank you for making this type of context; a lot more people need to know about mental illness and it prevents future generations from having to suffer from exposure like you did.

School is horrible 95% of the time people are getting bullied and 5% of the time we are actually learning
POND Parakeet I have never agreed with something more WRITE A DAMN BOOK
what if you're one of the cool kids?
Imagine a pie chart.
*98% Is Teachers Not Caring About Bullying.*
*1% Is Actually Caring About The Problems.*
*1% Educating.*
At our school basically everyone is friends, there isnt really any bullying
Who ever thinks the popular kids or cool kids dont get bullied your wrong bc I'm part of that group BUT GUESS WHAT 3 OUT OF 6 OF US HAS BEEN BULLIED
I think schools (middle and high) really need to get all the kids in the auditorium and bring in a recovered self harmer and for that person to talk about addiction. People aren’t educated enough on self harm so schools need to bring it up.
👏🏻👏🏻
I think it’s the opposite people talk about it so much it’s a trend at my school my old bestie started cutting in 7th grade she had forced herself into the popular group and ditched me they had never liked her but faked it for awhile then she started doing the private message things for her sc story and god people were cruel that’s when she started by 8th grade it was bad but no one was talking about her anymore she was still doing the chat things 24/7 no one was saying anything mean but she kept cutting she even told me she just wanted to see if people cared she would introducehwrself to people by saying hi I’m blah blah and I cut it was literally just for attention in the end she would wear short shorts and crop tops on winter days while it was snowing just to show them
Tara jick I agree, some people think cutting is a trend but I’m saying that your ex bestie needs to understand what she is doing to herself and that starts with her teachers and parents
I think they should do it in 4-5th, and middle and high, not just middle and high, because I know alot of people that are in 4-5th grades that need to learn about mental health, so they'll stop joking about killing themselves.
yes!!, people don’t even realize that it’s an addiction!
I was self harming,I was really hurting and I had to say something so I told my friends,at first it didn’t bleed,it would the scab....
At first I would use needles,then I started using razor blades...
One day I was gripping my arms cause I was bleeding...I was wearing my moms hoodie that day so I had to keep secretly looking at my arms,then my friend realized and forced my to show my arms to her...
I showed her my arms and I told her not to tell anyone,she told my other friends...and they scared me to death,they locked my into a bathroom stall,I started crying so I was let out of the stall,then the first friend that found out...
Told the teacher....
Then my teacher walked up to me in class and told me my counselor wanted to see my so u went to the counselor...my heart was pounding...we had a talk about my self harm...
She told my mom...and when me and my mom were talking about it...I was hiding something,she said “I know your hiding something...please tell me”I told her I’m lesbian,she supports me..
I still do it to this day,I still haven’t exactly haven’t gotten the help I need...
But I use my nails now...but I’ve been keeping them short so I don’t hurt myself...
That is my story...
I wish my friends did that to me cause it makes me sad that I'm keeping secrets from SO MANY people :( even my school counselor. I would tell her as long as I know that she wouldn't get mad or something idk but I'm glad you haven't hurt yourself as bad ever since
@@AjTheDarkestNarrator I'm also harming myself with nails and trust me this isn't such a big difference of doing it with a knife or doing it with nails... If u use nails u are scratching of your skin and there is also blood and all this shit...
... Im in middle school and im 12, I do it as well because my parents are homophobic and im pansexual and genderfluid, and im thinking about telling soneone like the counseler but 99% tell the school and your parents about it, only 1% acually help you.
I've never really been caught, but there have been so many times where it was close and it makes me so panicked.
I self harm right now and I’m trying my best to get over it. My parents don’t know. I wish I could wear short sleeves again...
Beef_Cheese_lettuce me too, stay strong.
Stay strong
I do the same but I do my legs instead for that reason
same...
I do the same.. I regret the first cut, I can't stop. It's an addiction.
i draw on myself to try and stop myself from self harming.
me too
glenda roa I have a therapy book that suggests that! I want to get a bunch of markers soon 😊
glenda roa same
glenda roa it's a good practice
I think i'll be doing that
I started to cut at age 6. Not because I was depressed, but because I love to feel pain and see the blood slowly appearing on my skin. I told this to my teacher, and she told me that I am a psychopath. But I don't have any symptoms of being a psychopath...
Blood kink maybe
Evan ? girl, she was 6 wtf
6 is a very young age to start cutting yourself. Most kids that age injure themselves by accident, but not on purpose.
Your teacher was a bitch
@@kaisoliz2533the fuck man.
My classmates made fun of it when i was younger and was a suicidal/selfharmer....
But i couldnt tell anyone cuz no one knew about my selfharm.
Yeah... My mom punishes me for self harming instead of helping me. She takes my phone away, I can't meet my friends, she forbids me to go horse riding and she said if I ever cut again she will beat me...so at least your parents are helping you and nice to you... 💔💔💔
Bella Kiraly I’m keeping you in my thoughts. I love horseback riding and training them. I wish we could meet in real life and be friends. I hope your able to find people who listen and care about you. Sending much love to you ❤️😍🐎
I think I'm your mom's secret family, cuz your mom sounds an awful lot like mines
same thing happened to me...it'll be better...just remember that you can do better and i know it's gonna suck right now but trust me...there will be a time you can do all of that again and be twice as strong. maybe confide in some friends at school for some help with your mom and always remember there will be a better day. listen to some music and don't care what others say. you'll be ok. we're here for you. 💜
My mom is the Same
Sameee
School is a terrible place.
It is it made me cut to and it was getting worse and worse when my mom found out that I cut and she just screamed at me and told ne that I was fine and it's only stupidity making me cut and it just got worst and I wanted to die so I just cutted on my legs and stop cutting my arm's because it was easyer to hide the cut with long shorts and stuff... The arms cuts heald and my legs where full of cuts what where older because it was going to be summer soon so i stopped and stuff.... But sometimes I wanna cut again and i do but at places where it's visible and stuff like that and sometimes I have so hard suicidal thoughts that I cryed so much and wanted to die so hard 💔
Darkipasta its a fucking prison ;-; they ruin lives there...
It makes everything worse but adults don't understand or take it seriously when you say you wanna die
I agree.
YES IT IS I START 7TH GRADE TOMMOROW PRAY FOR ME
Ive been re-watching this video for years. Every time that I feel like hurting myself or I'm just sad and crying and I feel like a mess i come back and watch this. I'd say 8/10 times it'll stop me from cutting. I really thank you for that.💜 you should be a therapist☺

*Does Self Harm*
Teacher: "Go to the principal's office."
*Goes there*
Principal: "You are getting 3 detentions for self harm!"
BECAUSE THAT WILL FUCKING HELP, RIGHT?!
Fucking school ruins everything.
Imagen being homeschoooled and the person that finds out is your mom and every night you have to roll up your sleeve to show her you've stopped and feeling like you in trouble everytime you show her her. But she doesn't know you still cut on your thighs.
Your principal gave you a detention for self harming???
OysterHunter
Yesh.
TwisterLord But why?? What on earth was the thought process behind that?
OysterHunter
How df would I know the school's dumbass desicions.
But they did say that its apparently for me to 'Stop being a bad boy'
Is it just me or did anyone else use the excuse they were climbing a tree and got scratched or something? I used that so many times lol. This video really helped btw!
#survivor; ‘lol’ ???? It’s not that funny
hehe... yea. but then they got too deep... XD
I say I fell into a rosebush
they were horizontal you could tell it was self harm
It was a cat scratch
When I told my counselor about how I was feeling she straight up told me “stop lying to yourself, you’re sad and over acting”. Or something like that. She then told my parents and the rest of the school. I was pulled out of class almost every day to go to either her or another staff member. People would stare at me and look at me differently, it was terrible. One day I was so fed up with it; when I was called up to her room sat down and said “I’m fine will you all just leave me alone!” Walked out and I was never called back in there. Well not yet at least. Staff members, if you’re reading this I want you to go on your campus and do something about this “system” of yours and FIX it. I’m speaking for everyone who’s been through problems such as depression, anxiety, trauma, anything, we DON’T want to be told were insane, we DON’T want to be told we’re fine. we WANT to be feel sane and as if we are a normal person on campus. DON’T make us feel like we’re crazy. Give us patience, when we are ready to talk to you, we will. But until then, give us our space and let us figure our lives out.
Awww actually trembling while talking .. I just wanna hug you . You’re beautiful
I hate it when school just yells at you for hurting yourself instead of helping
This is why school needs to change
My school is really good... its my parents that are the issue

The worst feeling is when you get punished for self-harming and it makes everything worse
milana tew it really does but the people who don’t cut the self or harm them selfs don’t understand one of my best friends cut her self because she was fat but she was not super skinny but not fat she was normal and i would hug her and make her feel better and she slowly stopped and I’m happy for her now

My mum does i hate it and she says to me to stop but i can't my mum used to do it
I got suspended and taken out of my classes for three days after my school found out about my self-harm. The school now sees me as their "problem student" and they view me as someone who "needs to be fixed". plus, they day I left the school teachers had a conversation with everyone in the school about self-harm, so everybody knew it was me.
***** Thanks so much! that means a lot!
that's bullshit... I hope you are better now tho ❤❤
fudge nuggets220 Thanks so so so much! :))
I would lay low for awhile if I was you.
And did they get you any help?
Misti D Yes. They were also quite helpful at times. Thank you very much!
Back in the days, I had depression. 2 times. Bc of school. Then, I found out about self harm. I once was on a call with a friend and as we were talking I just whipped out the knife and sliced a bit. And that's not good. Then, my mom found out about em. "Keep doing this and I'll send you to rehab" she said. "I'D RATHER DIE" I said. So, that's when I started doing it in secret. That was about one and a half years ago.
There is this girl at my school who draws, we show each other our art during class. We give each other better techniques, ways to improve our art. Except the drawings are in blood. And made with a razor.

the boss channel Well... I'm so sorry. This is why I don't trust my school. I hope you're okay.
pusheen lover911. I agree, my mom wanted to tell my teacher. if she had I bet that I would have been suspended too...
My school never found out about my selfharm but they caught my friend who went to a different school. It was absolutely awful... the principal made her strip while she and a counselor checked((which this totally uncalled for and inappropriate)) then they basically “arrested” her by getting the police to trick her into going into the cop car. They claimed that they were gonna take her home and tried to calm her down. But they freaking just took her to the mental institute where her parents had to fight to get her out. Social workers were sent to the parents for an investigation all while the staff in the mental institute were mistreating her. Apparently in the HS this has been a very common process to many mentally ill teens there. Truly disgusting and Idek how they’ve never been successfully sued
Sliver Wing That is honestly so disgusting. I’m so sorry your friend had to go through that.
I almost got sent to a Mental Institute. My grandma was smart and didn't sign anything, so I was aloud to go legally. I'm still scared to tell anyone how I feel for the fear I'll get sent there.
I_LUv_jOSh_dUN_ ll-// I just came back from the mental hospital. I was in there for almost two weeks
That’s honestly so messed up
in some states, like my own, they have a law where basically if someone (usually a teacher, counciler, therapist, etc etc) thinks you are in danger of hurting yourself or others you will be sent to a hospital until they think you are no longer a threat to yourself or others. your parent/guardian has no control of this either (so, like, they cant take you out of the hospital or refuse to let you go.) where i live its called a Baker Act. other than that i dont know much about it. I only know this much because i knew someone who got baker acted because she told her therapist she wanted to die.
no matter what, i’ll always come back to this video. this is probably my most favourite video on youtube. thank you so much for sharing this. we all struggle sometimes, and sometimes, it’s ok not to be ok.
I self harm so much, when I look at other people’s wrist I get jealous
I wish I never started cutting but you can't take it back and I don't have enough bracletes for P.E
I wear thin enough jackets to gym
I just wear long sleeve and shorts
I just say fuck it and tell anyone with an opinion to go shove it up their arse
Take the bottom of an old t-shirt and cut it so it’s thin and wrap it around your wrist like bracelets, or take cord or something else and tie it and make a bracelet.
I stopped going to PE over a year ago now :/
Every time her voice trembled, it broke my heart. Btw I love your hair it is so beautiful..
Le Krab ikr I feel horrible for her my life is very similar too her story I'm sad she had too go through that
Poppy yeah me too😭
God sams
Same *
“The second the school got involved with my self harm was the second I got so much worst”. I relate to this, SO much.
they put me in a ‘mental hospital’ for a month and it helped A LOT. i regret cutting myself so much because i love myself but every time i look down at my arms it’s a reminder that i was a dark and sad person. whoever is struggling right now, it’s going to get better. there is a light at the end of the tunnel. i love you.
i love you
i wish i could go to such a mental hospital
Clean = 6 and a half weeks (Edited)
WaitWhosMario? Same here
really happy for your Progress.Youre lucky.
WaitWhosMario? I'm so happy for you ^.^
Congrats I'm clean a day😔 I'm ashamed I really am. I'm trying to stop. It was the first time in I think a month.
Clean 6 moths ☺
In 8th grade, my math teacher saw my arm had cuts, she sent me to the nurse and she talked to me and made me call my parents and tell them everything and it just made everything worse. When I got home I was grounded and kinda made fun of by my dad. To this day, I still am ridiculed and made fun of. One day at Wendy's, a worker had some scars and my dad pointed it out and said to me (verbatim) "look at his arm. you see those scars? you want to look like that? you want to look like him? no boy will like that acy." It still fucks me up to this day.
I wanted to make a comment for this but I dont even know what to say.... I just feel so bad.
I am so sorry that all happened to you... 💔
GabePlays true true
GabePlays They don't do it "For Fun"
Acy Bost that’s awful. Your parents should give you support - not make you feel like you’ve done something wrong.
Thank you for sharing this painful experience you should not have had to go through at your school. I can feel your pain and it makes me hurt for you. You are a wonderful caring person and I want you to know that you are loved. It is tragic when a school, which is supposed to make you feel safe, does this. What they did was wrong and you are so strong to have survived it. I'm so sorry you were treated so badly.
Hi girl, I know how you feel, this happened to me a few months ago and had no help for it. Sometimes your own strength and mind is what you get... you need to get yourself better because no one realy cares. They say they do but it's something polite to say but just remember it's your life and you are the only one in controle of it. You're amazing keep going!
her voice is so shaky it makes me so ad

Why are people like this?... People be like, "Oh she/he is self harming he/she is different we need to punish them instead of help them." like what the fuck!? I'm a 14 year old girl who started cutting when I was 12. at the age of 13, 2 months before my 14th birthday, I was in my sister's room watching videos with my 2 sister's and my brother. suddenly my foster parents walk into the room and one of them goes, "I'm going to check your arms." and I refused at first but then i let her and she yells, "WHAT THE FUCK!?" at first i didn't cry. But then she told me, "Do you wanna turn out just like your mom!? is that why you're doing this!?" and it triggered me because I didn't. she didn't understand what i was going through! then she tells me to stop yeah like that FUCKING helps. I had to go and tell my counselor. and after that when i came to school I dont know how but everyone knew. I felt like an embarrassment and I literally started to become judged and started to be called an attention seeker and a whore.
why do people do this to us? do they really think, " oh they're self-harming let's embarrass them and they'll know not to do it next time!" well they're wrong! They're just making things worse for us! I'm hurt and broken and torn inside and just people can't get that. and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who feels this way.
Alyssa Cervantes stay strong. Don't let other people make things worse. Don't listen to them low lives who think they know everything.
Alyssa Cervantes you're a beautiful girl. stay strong
Alyssa Cervantes So sorry, love. Stay safe, beautiful
Alyssa Cervantes SHUT THE FUCK UP
RGS Cam Y DONT U SHUT THE F**K UP B**CH
youre so strong love. it is okay, we care about you. and we love you.
Damn.. You are very brave for sharing the story. I'm proud. And I went through the same thing not exactly in highschool, but yeah.. it was in my middle school years. I just want you to know ur beautiful, brave and very intelligent. And there is no WAY that someone is gonna put u down WE ARE HERE , all these comments and people are here for you ❤️🖤❤️
Teachers: always tell a trusted adult at school or home if you are having problems or just need to talk
student: I'm hurting myself I don't know what to do :(
Teacher: oh... you can trust me I wont tell anyone *tells everyone in staff, makes you feel more self conscious about what others look at you like*
Student: another thing to worry about thanks
this is how it plays out in my head if I say anything :(
Floof Fox The Therian same for me. i need help, but i know getting my school involved is just gonna make things worse (especially because one of my classmates went through it as well but she had it worse, i dont wanna trigger some bad memories) so if things arent gonna be better by the end of the year, i'll tell my mom cause i dont wanna harm myself any longer. if you desperately need help please try to get it somehow, even if it's by using different ways than directly telling your parents, just calling a hotline helps a lot, there are a lot of them all around the world. i hope things will get better for you soon. 💜
That happened to me like 3 days ago and my family knows but my mum didn't under stand why they had to tell her - '- and I have to talk to the principal on Monday
@@zypher6018 same ;~;
Okay but if they can't help you, it's not only a legal issue but a moral issue. How would they feel if someone asked them for help that they couldn't provide, and didn't say anything, and then the kid killed theirself?
Floof Fox The Therian that’s what actually happens, I would know
You. Yes, you. YES I AM TALKING TO YOU! Pretend I hugged you. ( in a non creepy way )
Janine Napierala ty
thx :)
thanks :) sending a hug back (also in a not creepy way)
Janine Napierala Thanks 😊
*hugs back in a non creepy way* For some reason this made my day, thank you
Who else cried while watching this because they cut to
I completely understand how you feel and I’m so sorry, you deserve so much better. You’re so brave for sharing and I really hope for the best for you ❤️
My school got involved. Everything got so much worse.

i told who I thought was my best friend that I self harm. the next day, my whole year knew.
CeriBerry c: aww I'm so sorry for you :c that really sucks
oh god im so sorry that's horrible. i really hope that you have gotten over self harm. I don't self harm but i know that it's one of the most emotionally draining and stressful things someone can do. I know that the sadness is probably still there, but i hope that you're at least doing better.
Awe I'm sorry but if it makes you feel better I like your profile picture (:
Ceriberry c: that's terrible
Ceriberry c: oh my god im so sorry
btw I love ur profile pic so much 😂
This really hit hard😭💔
In 5th grade I had a best friend and one day I found her self harm scars and more recent cuts. I wanted to scream at her and hit her because I was so scared for her. But instead I just looked her in the eyes, and I didn't want to cry because I didn't want her to feel guilty or feel bad that she made me feel bad. So I grabbed a marker, and don't hate on me because I was 9 or 10, and I just wrote, "You Are Safe." With a smiley face. Probably could have written something better.. I was mostly scared. And I knew enough about depression that you can't force them to be happy. I just wanted her to see a happy thing when she wanted to look back on the sad things
I thought she had stopped, until I learned she had been cutting her upper leg.
i once remember back in grade 9 (years ago) that i cut i arms completely from top to bottom with my depression. i tried to get out of gym class because my arms would be visible for a whole hour. i put 2 tenser bandages on both arms to make sure my cuts weren't visible when class started. but my dumbass gym teacher told me to take them off or she would take them off for me as everybody was staring at us arguing. eventually after arguing with her for 10 minutes, i took them off and she just stared at me for a solid 20 minutes basically and so did everybody else. i was so ashamed and embarrassed like nobody would believe. she told me "if you're gonna cut your arms, get out of my gym class!". i gladly dropped out of her class as soon as she said that
Brookep268 omg I want to beat your teacher so bad
thats exactily what you needed you self minded fuck
Itachi Uchiha what the hell? you're fucking disgusting, theres something wrong with you dude. fuck off.
justin walker SHUT UP YOU'RE NOT HELPING THE PROBLEM
justin walker you don't know why she did it so don't judge you are not making things better
I fucking hate when schools like that think they're doing the right thing by exposing the situation and making it 10x worse than it has to be.
IKR
I wanna expose your situation sexy.
+QAM ISRAEL what the fuck
+Howsenselessdeath Howpreciouslife you've really helped me with my depression and I thank you for that, I've been able to live more and hide away alone less. Thank you for sharing your stories with us and crying with us!! ☯☯❤️
Schools have to by law asses the situation when they see a child with self harm scars and tell someone. My teacher told my head of house who told my parents
You were so brave for doing this honestly. It makes me feel so much better knowing i’m not the only one who went through this and being forced into isolation really does mess you up.
I'm so sorry you had to go through that. I've had multiple experiences with school officials just being shitty at their jobs and making me and others feel isolated, barely tolerated, and unwanted. It's honesty bullshit that these people's JOBS are to help us, and instead they bring us down. This video can help so many people in your situation that they are not alone. Thank you ♥️
When I was 13, now I'm 14, but when I was 13 and because I live in one of the most suicidal states in the nation, the 7-12 grades have to watch a video about depression and suicide. When I was in 7th we did the same thing but at the time I wasn't depressed or self harming. In 8th we watched the same video but I thought the school had forgot to do it that year so I told some of my closer friends that I cut. Long story short they wrote my name on a slip of paper that said "I'm worried about [insert name]" and if your name was written, you got sent to the councillor. I got home that night and my parents were sitting on the couch I had to stay downstairs and talk to them about it. And I broke down crying, and they still didn't let me to me room. Then my mom started crying thinking that I did it because of her. And my dad just say confused because he didn't understand why I did it. And I got sent to the councillor again that year by what I heard was my P.E. teacher, she's super nice. And I got home and it was the same situation. And I dont know how long I've been clean but I'm starting to feel better but still a mildly insecure about the scars. Hey thanks if you read all of this ❤
I read it
I'm glad you over came it and that your parents were supper understanding, some people just don't get it or how it makes us feel.
Wow the same story happened to me I'm in middle school one of my friends saw my cuts and was worried and went up to the counselor and told her that I cut myself and I'm depressed. When. I arrived at home my dad gave me a hug randomly. I went to set my stuff down in my room, then my dad told me to come and sit down at the dining table to talk to them and told me that he got called from the counselor. We talked and I said that I have only cut myself once and I'm not going to do it anymore. My mom started to cry and they asked if I needed a therapist I said no. My dad told me that I was going to get called up to the counselor and they were going to do a body check of me. I was so stressed out the next day when I went to school. Personally I love school but I feared it that day. I didn't get called up to the counselor yet but I stopped cutting to prevent myself from going up to the counselor.
I read it all ❤️❤️
That's great
I wore short sleeves for months with my new cuts and old scars and not a single comment not a single look nothing......
If you need someone to talk to talk to me on hangouts
Anna Svensen so u want people to comment on it?
悲しいjanna when it is as obvious as I did it. Yes I do
Anna Svensen like being concerned about you? People live their lives, they’re not concerned about others around them, we’re all shitty living things and we’ll all die eventually so there’s no point in self harming.
Anna Svensen same, no one ever notices
She’s so brave , amazing and gorgeous. You can feel the pain in her voice and it’s upsetting to see so many young ppl with the same story💕
Wow. You are absolutely beautiful. I can hear your voice trembling but you still managed to carry on. I just wanna give you a big hug! My school found out ab my self harm and were amazing. My teachers have helped me more than anyone i know. A few months later after my school found out ab my self harm, i got much much worse and my form tutor ended up having to walk around the school to find me as i had a bit of a mental breakdown and walked out of class and he had to talk me out of suicide. My teachers are the most pure and kind people and i wouldn't be here without them. They got me counselling and i can go speak to them whenever i want. I actually love my teachers so much 🖤🖤
