Hello and welcome to Teenhelp, thank you so much for joining and telling us about what you have been going through. I am so sorry that you are having a hard time with this and hope that you will be okay soon.

You we're saying how your parents are always putting you down and you have been having a hard time with this and I am so sorry that this is happening to you. When we are going through something we want to have someone like our parents to help us out and not put us down. Would you be able to write a letter to them and put everything in it that you are having trouble with and ask if you can talk to them without everyone getting upset.

Also I have two articles on self harm, when you have time you can look at them and show this to your parents. So that they can understand why someone does this and hopefully they can help you out and understand why you do this. They are, https://www.psycom.net/parent-a-teen-that-self-harms/
and https://youngminds.org.uk/find-help/...ort-self-harm/

Another thing that you can try is if you are in school now, ask if you can talk to the school counselor and have them help you to talk to your parents. School counselors are able to talk to you about anything that you are going through and they can help you to talk to your parents too. When you are getting the feeling to do this, try to get your mind off of this for a while. Reading a book for a while or drawing or painting or writing or putting on a funny movie or TV show or going for a walk or finding something else to do for a while to help you out. I hope that you will be okay soon. Hugs
