I don't know you so I won't mention your self harming.

Best be out in the open- the truth can help a lot. If its you, they can help you with support, if its them you can help.

I won't tell them if you don't want me to,...

Is it because you take pleasure in doing it? Not to sound perverse but a lot of people consider this a fetish. Perhaps you should find a fetish website with a forum and get some answers there, (unless of course you have an understanding family), I would keep it on the private side. They may try to get you committed. Try reading books on BDSM and fetishes. You just may find your answer as well as more knowledge to gain.

Unless I'm completely off the subject, it could also mean that maybe you're attention deprived and need more of it.

Good luck

if its difficult talking to a member of your family, why not speak to your closest friend. I am sure they will be very understanding and try to find out how you can be helped.

my doctor told my mom and it sucked but i got help

Ok i don't know weather these people are idiot's but it clearly says ''My self harming'' so it's not the family.. -.-..

Anyways, Like one person has said, it's better to be straight out with it that keep it in, I swear to you that your family love you and want to care for you, unless you are not ready. Only do it when you feel ready to do so.
People care (:

i never told my family, my friends saw my arms and told my teacher, they told my parents :(
