How do I stop self-harming? My mom always yells at me and im stressed because of school work and i'd rather die. I have nowhere to go.

Start by being aware of which situations are likely to trigger your urge to cut. Make a commitment that this time you will not follow the urge, but will do something else instead.Then make a plan for what you will do instead of cutting when you feel this urge.

Explanation:

Here are some tips to help you out:

1.) call a friend and talk about something completely different

2.) take a shower (make sure you don't have razors in the shower)

3.) go for a walk or run, take a bike ride, dance like crazy, or get some other form of exercise

4.)play with a pet

5.)watch TV (change the channel if the show gets upsetting or features cutting)
