Hey,

As people have already said we all need love and attention. When I used to self-harm years ago, I would do the same thing as you. I wanted people to notice, but I didn't want to tell them myself. I also overall, hid them and my stuff. In a way, it's sort of like a cry for help. When we are suffering, we need more than one person to go too. So in away, maybe you are trying to find more people that you can seek out?

How many people do you feel comfortable talking about self-harm with? I know it's never an easy topic but I think if you have a solid group of support, that you can get through this. Keep seeing you counselor and being open with her. Counselors are great people to talk things out with, and I'm glad you feel comfortable with yours.

If you ever want to chat, you can message me.
Stay Strong. <3
