i'm sixteen and i started cutting when i was 12. it lasted on and off for 2 years, and i thought i got a hold of it. in 2009 my brother was arressted on charges of child pornography. hundreds of photos of babies being abused by adults. my world was turned up side down. a social worker came to my school, then to my house and now i have almost regular sessions with a shrink. her name is barbra. she is very nice. she helps me with a lot of things... a few weeks ago i hooked up with a boy i have liked for a very long time... he is 22 we were very drunk and i was just a piece of ass. we havent really talked since. that triggered my first slip up in 3 years shortly there after there were two more occurrances. my best friend moved in a month ago and he helped me deal with the house being so empty. you see, i'm the youngest of five and all the others are gone now. i needed him and he needed me. my parents didnt like him living with us because is a boy and they are oldfashioned. so they kicked him out. he has nowhere to go and i need him. i want to cut again so badly. i told my shrink about my cutting and i'm afraid if i keep telling her about it she will put me away somewhere... not like my family has the money for it now, my brothers bail is at 40,000 and we cant pay it. we just have to wait for his sentencing hearing. still i cant face my family with this weakness.. help me.

Thank you, very helpful. :)
