i basically told my mother about my cutting. and she was getting ready to send me to a loony bin. she said it was bad and unhealthy and blah blah blah. i haven't even done it lately. and her...she used to do it too and was hospitalized 3 times for suicide attempts! so maybe she should take her meds and go take care of herself.
and i told her that i hadn't wanted to get counseling cuz i didn't want her to know. she couldn't see why, so i told her that when i first got counseling, she always asked me about it, and said i didn't want to tell her cuz it was probably about her, and she got all upset. she laughed at me when i told her that and told me to get out of my fantasy world cuz she never said that and i was crazy. wtf. yeah, she did, i know she did. she's in her own damn fantasy world. effing hypocrite. gah.

Just tell her Doctor/Patient confidentiality.
Yeah I cut my mom is still just saying stop so I don't know when that will quit lucky for me I have yet to make a suicide attempt well unless you count that time I overdosed on NyQuil trying to kill myself and I ended up Robo-Tripping but I imagine in the next few days I will make a attempt depending on stress it always seems to be the dependent on what happens. Anyway, Yeah she should worry about her own condition before she goes and tells someone how to run there life. Anyway Good Luck *Hugs*

Woah. It sounds like she is taking her past frustration on you. Maybe she wants you to take counseling because she feels it would help you,if it helped her. Man,that is messed up though.
Hope everything goes well soon! Becca

I used to be a cutter, too - I started when I was 12; I stole razors from my dad. It took me 3 long years, a ton of different meds (I'm so off and on when it comes to meds), and therapy. Therapy helped the most, meds just helped with impulse control.
I agree with DigitalMe, Doctor/Patient confidentiality all the way. My mom used to ask me about therapy and she'd flip out when I said "yeah, we talked about you, too - not just dad." But eventually she backed off and saw that therapy was working. Good luck. t(^.^t)
