I just read your question and it just broke my heart! Is there an adult that you can confide in!? Your preacher!? School Counselor!? Given how your parents reacted last time, I don't think this is something you ought to do alone!. You need to find someone who can sit down with you and talk to your parents about this!. Is the abuse all the time!? Was their abuse before the first episode between you and your parents!? It is hard to get a complete feel on the situation not knowing if the abuse is a common occurrence or if it was due to the incident itself!. If it was due to the incident, then your parents reacted out of fear!. As a parent, it would be hard to hear that from my child, but in today's society, children have a much harder time and have many more obstacles to face!. The best advice I have is to talk to the school counselor!. Explain the situation and see if he/she will sit down with you and talk to your parents!. The reason I suggest the school counselor is because they will be able to explain the reasons behind this type of behavior in a way that may make it easier for your parents to understand!. The next thing you need to do is see your doctor and explain what is going on to him/her!. You may need medication or something as simple as therapy!. This is a problem that can be fixed, but you have to face it and deal with it head on!. I wish I could do or say more to help!. Stay strong! The teenage years are rough, but luckily you only have to go through them once!. Please take care of yourself!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
i understand the way you feel, because i've been cutting myself too, and not because i'm emo or anything!.!.!. like you, i've been depressed, though i was never a cheerleader or had many friends!. i literally hated myself up to the point where i felt like i had to cut or i would explode!.
you can try talking to your parents and telling them about what's going on in your life!.!.!. i've been feeling down lately too, so you're not alone!. i hope your parents can understand!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i dont know what happened to you, which we may need to know but i will try anyway
it is hard and i understand that cutting is like a 'release' from it all and that it would be hard to stop cutting!. However perhaps it would be worthwhile to see a psychiatrist or the very least the school counsellor!. With your parents, they are being harsh, but you have to try understand it from their perspective too!. I am not saying they are right, but to me it sounds like they are angry with themselves or can't comprehend why this has happened!. And yes i imagine that would make it worse, but you are not alone, they are people all over the world that cut themselves and are also depressed!. The only problem is getting back into routine, yes i know duh! that was the whole point of your question!. I think you need to start anew with different goals and different approaches to life, you need to think differently and get back up onto your feet, you still have your whole life ahead of you and it would be a shame to see another bright light go out!. You know what your life was like before and you should keep that desire to get it back!. You lack motivation, i think anyway you need to find something whether that be a career or desire to live fully again!. Maybe you will have to move schools or leave your old life completely for you to recover, but never give up!. Perhaps you could replace the cutting with something a little less severe, the pain i guess is the kind of relief so perhaps you could find another relief or a less severe way of inflicting pain (pinching!?) and work your way down to no self-harm, but realistically you should find something not self harm inflicting at all!. However a gentle transition might help!. So i am not a professional or a person in a similar situation, but i am almost 17 and practically have no social life too in hope that i will study enough to do well enough to get into the courses i want to and i am not depressed!. Its just a sacrifice i have to make, but anyway you are not alone though you feel it and there is help around, you just have to find it!. Many People from horrible situations have gotten back onto their feet and found their lives again, so don't give up you are capable of it too!.
Try remember all the happy things you have in life too :)!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I know exactly what your going through!.
this is basically my life, but i don't cut anymore, well as often!.
i didn't tell my mom, my mom just found out and blamed my best friend and forbid me to see her, the only person i could talk to which only made me do this more and she just kept yelling at me and saying i just wanted attention, which was the opposite of what i was going for!.
i would suggest talking to a counselor at your school i know you say they wouldn't do anything about it but they will, just tell them you need help telling your mom and then it will be a little easier you'll have a support system instead of just going one on one 'cause that would be really hard!.
or you could ask someone you can trust to come with you!.
best of luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

it sounds like your parents aren't who you should turn to, and if they hit you, that is part of the problem!. i'm not sure how old you are, but this is a hard situation!. i know that just because you cut, doesn't mean you are suicidal, but if you ever do feel like killing yourself, you should go to the hospital immediately!. i have friends that are cutters, and i am 28 years old, they are older, and you would never guess it, even though they wear long sleeves in the summer!. the problem is deeper than cutting, so if you tell your parents, don't tell them you are cutting, just tell them your other symptoms, and tell them you need help!. when you tell them you hurt yourself, they obviously shut down!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
i no exactly how u feel here aye!.
it sounds just like me!.
you should just sit your parents down and tell them about it!.
it may help to have a cousin or aunt you can trust there with you to help you out!.
this is serious
cutting can destroy your life and it sounds like its already starting to!.
tell your parents that you want to stop this but to do it you need help!.
try seeing your doctor because he may be able to give you anti depressants as that may be what you need!.
if you still are confused about how to tell your parents try calling a kids help line or youth help line in your regine!.
take care and please try to stop cutting!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
