Hey Courtney,
It sounds like the emotions you're feeling right now are quite strong, leading you to try and cope with them through self harming. Depression is never something easy to go through alone, and it sounds like you are having to deal with it by yourself. Just remember, you are worth getting help - you deserve to get through this and beat this depression.
Message me if you ever need to talk - I'll always be here.

hi sweetie. I do not think you do self harm for attention. Not at all. I am sorry your mum doesnt understand that this is not why people self harm. Nothing is your fault. What you are feeling, depression, and everything else. It is not your fault. Just like anyone else with depression and pain and self harming. It really is not their fault. Right?
I am sorry your mum will not let you get help. do you think it would be possible to talk to a school counselor about it? That way she would not have to know. And if she found out, the counselor would be able to help her understand how very real this is.
You are not alone. Many parents do not understand. I think that is so sad. So I am sorry. I hope it will be possible for you to talk to a school counselor. But just know you are not alone. Sadly there are so many kids out there who are in your position. Feeling so hurt and alone. and not having anyplace they can turn to. Please just know that your mum is misled. You are NOT doing this for attention. I know it. I am sorry you hurt so much. Again, its not your fault
