Am I supposed to tell them I really really wanna kms right now?

Yes. If you don't, they can't help you.

Nah, they’d lock me up lmfao

Not if you are honest about it. Talking openly about it instead of just doing it is a good sign that you might be ready to fix stuff.

Can’t even tell my mom cuz she’d get mad at me…

That's not normal and not healthy. Tell your therapist. They might be able to find a way to get you out of an unhealthy environment, at least for a while.

    I used to hurt my self and went to therapy explaining that I was afraid I will end things: They didn't lock me, and instead help me understand what a lot of people go through, and that the fact that I am asking for help means that I'm in the right direction.

    That said, my brother killed himself after VA fumbled his sessions, he spiraled down and for a single week he was in high spirits, always joking, as if we had him back. Then my dad found him. I wish they had locked him so I could still have a brother.

    If someone here is considering self harm, please ask for help. It is worth it and you matter to us.
