Mom sending me to counsiling.

My mom found cuts on my arm. I did it cause I wasnt thinking & I have had soo much On me these past few months. She is threatning to send me to counsiling if I don’t tell her why. The main reason is cause I hurt my boyfriend really bad & I think about it all the time ; I thought if I did do it it wld take the pain away. It was either that or me od. But im afraid if I tell my mom that she will make me break up with him. What do I do ?

Answer #1

Hi! =] Ok well let me tell you one thing…at least you have a mother that cares..u should feel proud of having a mom that cares…some people dont have that!! =] One thing that you should think about is…her taking you to counseling is not a threat!! Its helping you get better in self esteem… If the problem is that you feel bad you hurt your boyfriend…let me just tell you one thing…nobody is perfect!!! And im not going to judge you on what you did wrong but if he knows what you did wrong…and he still doesnt understand your reason I really dont know what to tell you..maybe you should think about it this way?? Is he worth your life??? No!!! You should not be doing these kind of things for someone you hurt…because out of everyone you are hurting yourself!!! Get me??? And if cutting yourself makes you feel better, maybe you do need help..

Now the answer to your question…im not saying to lie to your mom..but if you take in consideration something I jsut said agree with your mom to take u…and tell the doctor…doctors dont have the right to tell you mom…unless its something like criminal…ya know?? Im sure when you do talk to the doctor you need to explain to her that your afraid your mom is going to mke you break up with your boyfriend…so ask him/her what they suggest??

I hope I helped u…and if you have any more ??? feel free to funmail me…I almost lost one of my best friends due to a break up with her boy!! And I was the one who took her to counseling because not only did she overdosed on pills but I ended up taking her to the hospital for her stomach to get pumped from an od on alcohol!!! Iand till this day if it wasnt for me…she would have died in her house…because her mom didnt care!! =[ So trust me!!! =]

Ok well like first if your forced to go to couseling you dont have to talk to them at all I mean you can just like sit there and ignore them…I went to only two couseling meetings and I told them I didnt want to talk to them so I didnt talk and I dont have to go anymore I hated that lady…but yeah I understand why you cut urself I did to but my boyfriend broke up with me thats why I did and yeah but no one found out just friends but what im saying is just tell her mom look I know what I did was stupid and I had no reason to like I dont understand why I did just things like started pressuring up on me and I couldnt take it anymore and I thought it would help but I was wrong its just stupid and I promise I wont ever do it again mom im sorry im very sorry then blah blah blah so on so on so on lol ok well yeah but I mean yeah if she asked like what was like pressuring you just say like everything like I mean like school is getting harder and like im trying to like keep my grades good and like home im just like going through puberty or like pure pressure yeah just say something liek that I guess well I hope that helps

Answer #3

well…I used to cut because my mom used to hit me and I felt like a terrible person and worthless and all that and because I hurt my freind that I was very close to and it killed me inside…my mom found out I denied it but the evidence was there…she put my in counseling…it seriously helped me…it was the best thing I ever did for myself she is super nice and doesnt make me feel less of myself I would recommend it…but if you feel that its not for you (which I did at first) give it a try anyways…I swear it helps and if people say things to you then they are just insecure about themselves…and dont worry about your mom making you brake up with him…simply explain everything to her..and dont worry about a counsler telling your mom about anything that you say to her…or him…because if you tell them not to say anything they cant unless you are going to hurt yourself or somebody else physically…I hope all this rambling helped!!!

Answer #4

well…if you relley think your mom wud break up you and your boyfriend, and since you did cut urself, maybe counseling cud help? I mean hey id swicth places with you anytime, I want to go to counseling because I iihave many problems(btw I also cut) but I cant because of many issues rite now. if you ever need to talk funmail me =]

Answer #5

Do what is right - your Mom is trying to look after your best interests, she loves you, and CARES - many, many, don’t - Be Thankful !!

Answer #6

I think that you should definitely get counseling, especially since your mom is offering. It gives you someone to talk out your problems with and the counselor has to keep things confidential (unless some thing illegal is going on.) This way, you don’t have to tell your mom what’s going on until you are absolutely ready to. I don’t have any experience with the cutting thing, but I could imagine that it hurts your mom to know that you would rather cut yourself to rid the pain than to talk to her. It’s a mother’s heart. She wants to help you and she loves you!

Answer #7

councelling REALLY isnt as bad as people make it out to be.

Im seeing a counceller at school. Its not bad..she just lets me talk or asks me questions and its usually not directy at the cutting. Its about handling your emotions and why you feel the way you do and what colours you associate with anger or happiness etc. Its really not as bad as you think.

But do what you think is right. Its know one elses choise. No one can make you do anything you dont want to do.
