I self harm, I've never been afraid to admit it, i don't go around telling everyone but if someone sees scars or bandages on my arm and asks i wont lie. The hardest part for me of someone finding out is that they really wanted to help, having people know is a great thing and i think as long as the friend you told is close enough to her, you did the right thing. Also if she/he is self harming try to stop it earlier, i started just scratching myself with a nail and in less that two weeks was in hospital after using a piece of broken glass, required 29 stitches.
Ps friendship is greater than love or marriage, because friendship is where there is truly nothing in it for either of you, but you enjoy each other enough to be together.
