[female, age 23, began to SI in 6th grade]

One supervisor has never said anything about it...I think she just blew it off. The other one was really concerned and caring. My friends have all mostly been worried. Sometimes I feel now like I'm under scrutiny for telling them, like they should check my arms. But mostly they have all been really caring. I am very careful in who I tell, though, before anyone finds out. My therapist asked me to sign a no-harm contract and to call her, crisis care or a friend, when I felt that bad.
