I just self harmed for the second time ever and I am scared?

Question

I don't even know what triggered it this time.. last time I had a massive argument with someone I live with and that triggered it but this time I was just feeling stressed out, started panicking and it just happened. A couple of weeks ago I went to the doctor and was diagnosed with depression and am now on the waiting list for a psychiatrist but I don't know what to do in the meantime because it is probably going to take a few months or so. I don't want to tell my parents so I can't really go back to the doctor.. I just don't know what to do any more. 

I'm sorry I posted this on here.. I just need to vent.

You need to talk to someone. I imagine it would be easier to stop in this period of time where you are still scared of what you are doing to yourself. A friends parent a adult from church you can trust. An aunt or grandparent any adult you feel like you can talk to please talk to them it will be hard but getting help earlier will most likely help you in the long run. I am sorry you are going through a though time and I hope things get better and remember the longer you keep it a secret it will be harder to come forward about it.

Think about what you're doing to yourself. Cutting may feel good in the moment, but in the long run it's so bad for you. The scars stay for a lifetime, and you feel ashamed of it. Instead of cutting, write, draw, run, do anything else. Good luck.
