ok, basically, I've been cutting myself for about a year now, and I want to stop, but I can't do it on my own. I think talking to someone would help me a lot, but the only person I know that I trust enough (my best friend, who knows about my 'hobby') can't seem to deal with it. He just makes sick jokes about it and changes the subject, or something. I know it upsets him, but I need to talk to someone, and he's my best bet.... anyone know a way I can get him to talk to me about it?

Well you should really talk to your parents, get it over with waiting will only make it worse. But if you want to keep it private then, write what you have promised yourself on a piece of paper, (even just remember would do) and put it somewhere you'll see it when you wake up, maybe in your socks draw, or as a start up message on your computer. Then whenever you fail to keep to your promise you'll see it and regret it. Oh yeah and throw all your sharp objects away.
Remember, one day there wont be a tomorrow to put it off to, one day you will have to face all you're demons and it would be better to do it now with support, than latter alone.
I'v heard of people doing that before. but the only advice i can give yah, is stop doing it.
Work up the curage to tell someone. If you feel you need to talk outside your family Im sure someone at your school can help.

:rolleyes: did you read his entire post at all? Just tell your friend you need to have a serious talk about this. I'm pretty sure he'll understand.
I'm way cooler than n0e (who isn't though?)

you have to do what is best for yourself, you cant change who you are
it will only make you more miserable
yeah I did, but no one can really help him to get his friend to help him.
try your guidance counciller(sp) at your school, my guess is that he/she is better equipped to help you then your friend is.
