wow thats a tough one!.!.!.!.sounds just like my story!.!.!.unfortunately or fortunately!.!.!.i didn't have to tell my parents someone who found out told my parents for me without me knowing!. i was so mad!. but i am better now and grateful they did!. I think your parents could really help!.!.!.unless they are mean!.!.i don't know, you know them best!. it is going to come back to them eventually!. if you risk telling someone else and they find out about it!.!.!.they will be mad they didn't hear it from you first hand!. so i think the best thing is to just tell them!. once you do get an apt with a doctor to make sure you haven't done any permanent damage with your eating issues!. good luck

don't listen to what those other stupid people who are commenting on this are saying!. they have obviously never dealt with depression or cutting issues!.!.!.how naive!Www@Answer-Health@Com

i know exactly how you feel!.
im almost completely in the same situation, except for the bulemia!.!.!.
and its very hard to recover, i havent even yet!.
i suggest you talk to someone you can completely trust, more preferably a best friend who knows, i suggest no adults, unless your VERY close!.
aslo, if you ever wanna talk, talk to me<3
i wont tell anyone!.
and we can relate to eachother!.
so, talk!.

first of don't listen to anyone, and never believe them, ur parents may call u worthless, but i bet they love u, my parents call me evry name under the sun but i know they would do anything for me, tell ur parents they will help,or go see a doctor in private, he can't tell anyone if u don't want him to!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

your parents call you worthless and ugly!?!?!? then there not really good parents if they do that!.!.!.parents are susspossed to love you
not treat you like a dog!.!.!.why not try talking with them!? tell them god loves you and jesus is in your heart!.!.!.that will make you feel better hope this helps!Www@Answer-Health@Com

hmm, pick up other destructive habits, like algebra!. This is going to ruin your day!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

just stop doing it!. it makes you look more like an idiot!. im sorry but its the truthWww@Answer-Health@Com

one thing i can tell you!. if you cut, your depression is not slightWww@Answer-Health@Com

i have alot of experience with depression!. not so much with cutting (looked like it hurt too much physically), but i did other things to replace cutting!.

i had alot of trouble telling my parents!. thats why i never told them!. if it is really that hard to tell your parents about ur problem, my best advice is dont!. INSTEAD, YOU MUST go and tell a guidance counselor at your school, who will listen you, but still keep things mostly confidential!. ORRR u could do what i did, i kept it to myself, until i felt so depressed i tried to commit suicide!.

its ur choice!. have the problem get worse and worse until u reach that point, OR tell ur parents/guidance counselor/doctor about ur problems and fix it!.

hope i helped XD
