Right basically I’ve had a problem with self harm since I was like 13 (I’m 16 now) and it was bad at one point mum found out threatened to send me to counselling etc so I stopped. Ish. Now it’s not much of a problem but I’ve become depressed due to stress and three weeks ago my boyfriend broke up with me over it. We are now back together (we were broken up for a day) and I’m scared if I don’t stop completely I’ll lose him. But that’s not my main issue. I’m going to the doctors on Wednesday to talk to my gp (for something unrelated) and I don’t know whether or not to discuss it with her. On the one hand, she could maybe prescribe me with something or refer me to a specialist to help, but that would make it a bigger deal than I believe it is, and I don’t want to let my mum down. She’s under the impression I stopped a long time ago. And it’s not like it’s bad, it’s never deep enough to even bleed half the time. But I’m not sure which is better. What would you do/what should I do?
