holy shit, im shaking so bad, i did it, i told someone. she hasnt said anything though.

well done its really hard i know but u did it

shes just asking a lot of questions, which i guess, is normal cos i guess she doesnt know why i do it, or comprehend how i could do it. im stilll shaking.

YAY! that takes guts... good for you!!! good luck! are you able to answer her questions?

most of them, i feel a bit weird, i feel like an object thats just been discovered and shes asking does it hurt? what do you use? are they sore? how much did you do it, and do i want help? i feel kind of guilty for telling her becasue she says she feels bad that i have to do it, and i dont really know what to say when she says that. but she probably needs time right? you cant expect someone to understand in an instant can you?
i feel like a weight has been lifted though, we'll have to see how it goes from here...e.g if she asks to see them (will probably freak me out, but i think she will cos shes like that) and if she asks why.. i dont really want to tell her about the rape right now, one secret at a time, she will find out, i just think its a bit much to deal with all at once.

wow congrats!
i've told a very few ppl myself...it's sooo hard
thank you for sharing this!

I am very proud of you.

im happy for you. =)

believe me this will help.

fair enough, only tell her as much as you feel comfortable saying, no need to spill everything all at once... It will probably take time for her to understand but I'm sure it will be fine

you are very lucky to have a friend like that.. when i told my best friend. all he said was "call me if you feel like cutting"

there was no, "why do you SI, how long have you been doing this, what do you use. or anything"

when i told him about my relapse all i got was "WHY DIDN'T YOU CALL ME!?" "GIVE ME THAT RUBBER BAND BEFORE YOU HURT SOMEONE"

thats why i don't consider him a best friend.... just..a friend

well done xxxx

Is it still doing ok?

well done, i wish i had the strength to tell someone....i want to more than anything but im scared and just dont know who to tell or what to say. well done again. x

You did great. This is a step in the right direction for you and I think you are couragous.

Good luck.

How's it going w/ you're friend?
