I need advice
Hi everyone or anyone
I need advice. Like lots of people on here I am struggling with self harm and mental illness. My living situation is very complicated and I am trying to get into an intensive outpatient program. I recently got a therapist who I really like, she is trying to help me communicate my needs because my brain is like mush right now. I can't think or make decisions. I gave her release of information to speak to my mother about programs and how I can get help but she told my mom about my self harm. I know it was stupid to sign the ROI when I want to keep things from her, but I need help. I can't communicate for myself. I don't know how to go about it. My mom is nice and supportive, nothing seriously bad would happen if I told her the truth. She asked me about it and I didnt know what to do, I just denied it. I looked like an idiot because I was obviously lying about it. Im not wanting her to know that about me. I dont have anyone to talk to about this, I dont have friends or any support other than my therapists, I dont even know how to talk to her about this. Anyone with an opinion, please share. Im totally lost.
