Bullying
In September of this year me and my two friends ( we will call them Jen and Robert) decided that we would report what Jens ex boyfriend was saying to us. Jens ex boyfriend (we will call him Dean) was harassing us and telling us to cut ourselves and kill ourselves. He has told me and Jento cut ourselves and kill ourselves knowing that we go to therapy and have cut in the past. he also said "Kill yourself or I'll do it. I have no problem beating a faggot to death" to Robert. When we told the school they gave Dean a one day in school suspension and that was it. when my mother found this out she was furious. she has taken measures to try and make what happened with the school and Dean right, but I know that everyone being harassed by him is still in pain from the whole situation. I have cut many times because of him and so has Jen.
Cutting or self-injury of any kind is never an appropriate solution to any problem and I am sure that you know that. Try to reach out to your school counselors so you can talk to someone and have that support when you have the urge to cut. Here are some websites with valuable information on cutting and self injury:

In regards to the bullying you must request assistance from Antibullying Specialist or administrator at your school. You mother has the right to ask for an investigation and request that measures are taken at school so that you are not targeted by this person. You can go to Bullystoppers.com for more information. Please call 2NDFLOOR anytime if you need to talk further, we are available to talk 24/7 at 888-222-2228.
