I did for a while. Ask away.

Is considered SI if you hit yourself in the head, make your gums bleed in your mouth, and poke yourself with a fork and a knife?

yup yup and yup.

I understand it,am too squeamish to cut though

I used to punch my own head in as a kid :(

And so you wanna stay that way susy. tis not a pleasant addicition to have though thankfully my own experience was shortlived.

i cut n very occasionally burn - never do any of the other stuff bt it is considered self harm. u need 2 talk sweetie ?xx

I didn't think it was b/c I do not cut myself. Is this something serious that I should tell someone?

yeah - its still means ur creatin physical pain 2 focus on instead of emotional pain - so u do need 2 tell someone xxx

I think you need to ask yourself if you NEED to do it, like can't go without and how often you do it.

My therapist did not seem it was too big of a deal, but I am afraid to tell my psychologist or psychiatrist or my parents b/c they might send me to the hospital.

im a cutter, any form of pain to yourself is self harming you are best to tell somone to try and help you from hurting yoursef

no it's not that straightforward hun, they're not just gonna treat you like a broken toy and stick you away somewhere. They'd probably try to get to the bottom of why you do it and probably try and wean you off it. Never be afraid to tell people like that they're not always out to lock you up and that therapist sounds like an arse. Get rid.

i dont think they will send you to a hospital incase you need stiches

I think the therapist is right though. Also, I just came out of the hospital so I am already on the line. I will just keep it to myself.
