hi my name is david my self harm story started 5 years ago.
i was gettin bullied at school so one day i went home and i cut myself all over my arms.
the worst was when i took a razor blade before school and cut my wrist then just covered it over wit my blazer and when to school.
one day at school my english teacher asked to speak to me i was scared she ask me to show her my arms i knew that i was found out. however she was very supportive.
then i got some help for self harming however when i feel down thats a trigger for me.
now 5 years on i like to help self harmers coz of my exprience

Thank you for sharing your story. What’s encouraging is that you have been able to identify what triggers you (‘feeling down’) and this is what we try and support self-harmers to do….. to work out the hows and whys of why they feel the way they do and to find alternative methods of coping that work for them.
I’m sure there are many people on this site who could learn from your experience.
