So I told my family I used to self harm.

(I'm typing this on my phone so I apologise for any mistakes).

I told them all on Facebook, ideally not the best place but I had to be heard and got a considerable amount of love and people behind me, being there for me.

It started out as a rant about things I have been through. Tattoos, bitching, self harm, suicide and music.

I kindly asked people not to have a go at me for wanting a tattoo. I kindly asked people not to be so bitchy anymore. I then spoke about being suicidal for a long time along with my self harm and that I am 245 days clean, (I think, can't remember how many exact right now).

I then spoke about how music saves lives because it does and the amount of support I had on that status was incredible. I have received support from most of my family except for my mum and dad.

My dad doesn't have Facebook so my mum will tell him. Mum has read it and I don't think she's happy as she stormed out the house to work so I'm waiting on her reaction when she comes home from work. I'm scared I'll admit that. *sigh* wish it was easier than this.
