If you mean by look out, care about... yes. If you mean by look out; double guess, question, put down, degrade my answer would be no no no.

*hugs*

Same issue here!!!! We had to do these journals and one question was, "In what way are you a prisoner" and I said I was a prisoner of SI... then I was told we'd turn them in... I deleted the answer but then I printed out the old version.. then I blacked it out with sharpie... but not good enough I guess, because I had to go talk to the school counselor...

*sigh* that must be frustrating.

I am in Highschool and I think that the school should back down and not be watching over you all the time. Through the years I have been at school I have learned I cannot trust anyone. You tell a friemd something then later the whole school knows. I have learned to keep my mouth shut. If I were you, I would go to the school and tell them to back down and don't get in my case about it. Hope this helps in some way.

Self harm is a serious problem, and I think if they think you might be self harming, it is their duty to intervene. Some people come from families where there parents don't feed them, don't discipline them or don't care about them. Your teachers need to check that everythings ok in your life in case no one else is. It might be frustrating, but in the eyes of the law your still a child and need looking out for. Even if it seems like they are interfering. I know its shit, highschool is horrible. Trust me, its the worse time in your life, it only gets better after that!

im happy that people has commented and put their own views into this im very pleased i do no that yes it is in the teachers agreement that they do have to send all of these papers to the view of the guidence counsiler if things seem.."wrong" but wut got me was that she told me that only she would be reading it so it upset me in that point of view... i agree with talking with serten people there at school may brake or even wont do anything to your reputation at school i have one friend i can trust to anything that they wont tell any one at all.. and as for an adult at school that would be my libarean.. lol yeah laught at it but its true she understands wut it is like to go through stuff like this...but yeah i was being watched all day today.. teaches going out of there way to look at an silent out cast and ask if their ok or how was their day... its really bothersome i say... sigh well keep writting... im just putting wut the people of ds thinks about the edicational system of highschools around the world think of SI and the people with in their systems that are SIing

It sounds claustraphobic and embarassing all the teachers watching you all the time! I feel for you x

lol its kind of funny for the fact that im one of the shy and quiet poeple in school but the thing is is that how can they "watch" over me of every move that i make?? sigh things are just getting worse and wrose so yeah any way keep writting tell me your views of wut a school should really do with in this aspect of events

I know the feeling. I'm being watched too. Some friends reported me suicidal, so now the vice principal and my counselor are always watching me. I also am a really shy and quite teen. But they can't watch me all the time.

annoying isn't it socc? I mean I know they have an obligation... but, ugh... they think they know everything

yes jondy, it is very annoying.

that is so ridiculous... it is, and you know what dont talk to them... you dont have to. I would just sit there and stare at the wall behind them, not saying a word. Wow I find it so upseting that you write a paper on this and you are in a sense called out... I am sorry that happened to you..

I totally understand how it feels to be watched and followed around school. I had the same thing happen with me. I had to keep staying in pupil reception with a teacher to make sure i was safe until my mum came to collect me. All the teachers seemed to think i was crazy, and it was such a horrible experience. i feel for you. x

I'm a teacher and I really care about all of my kids. Teachers are required by state government to report stuff, like SI or abuse or anything along those lines. It is to protect the kids. You have so much to look forward to when high school is done. I didn't like high school much either. It is a really tough time. I am a teacher and I do SI. I haven't for awhile now (month or so), but I know what it's like. I worry about my kids, I want them safe. I wish my scars would go away, but they never will, I wish someone had told me to think about that. There is a lot of help available out there. 90% of the teachers really love their kids and do not want to see them hurting and genuinely want to help. We really do care! I wish I could be more honest with kids, like hey, I know where you are coming from... life sucks sometimes, but it gets better, has it's ups/downs... and I've hurt myself, but there are better ways of dealing than SI and I'm learning that too. You are not alone!
