Does your family or friends know about the RYL?????!!
 
hey ....
Ever since i'm addict to this site ,i find it hard to hide tha fact that it is a site about self-harm ,Ed,......
no one knows about it that i use and i usually when i'm online at the site i open more than one tab so i can move between them freely when someone opens the door and rush into my room ,cause the pc is not mine and i share it with my sis and my bro and it sucks !!!!!
So my sis says yesterday what the hell is wrong with you ? you spend the whole day on forums ? why did u make fun of me when u knew i spend my day on lee ryans forum? !
Damn it sis ! that man is silly and shallow ,screw his damned bloody forum u all talk about how he's cute and how is fit 247! we help each other at the RYL!

uhggggggggg! of course i didn't say that !

what to do !?????????????
i'll keep cursing now .............!

The only people who know I'm on RYL are members. And when I go on RYL at school I always open up another browser - always works! Hope you're okay. xo

Yeah, I know where you're coming from.
My little brother (only a year and a half younger) probably suspects that I'm on here again.
He used to know when I used to come on the old version.
My family and friends at school don't know though.
But I'm not so worried now, because I've stopped it's easier to admit to friends that you used to rather than you do.
So hmmm. Not sure where I'm going with this...
*shuts up*

alot of my friends and my rents know about me bein on RYL and they know what it is about.

Psiren 14-06-2007 12:28 PM

I do the opening multiple tabs or multiple windows thing to hide being on RYL.
It's a bit awkward sometimes but yeah...
Take care x

A few friends of mine know about RYL and my parents do as well - at least my mum does, and I asume my dad knows too.
I just explain it to her and she saw it as a good way to get better so she approved.

Before my parents found out about my self harm and RYL, I used to have a number of windows open so I could flick between, but that was when my computer was in my mum and dad's room.
My parents found out about my self harm in January last year, and I told them instantly about RYL and they were quite happy for me to continue coming here. My sister who is 15 knows I self harm and knows I'm on this website but I still have a tendency to minimize the screen when she walks past the computer. A few of my friends know I self harm and only about 3 know I'm on the website along with my boss, youth worker and ex-pastoral care teacher as I have just left school.
I hope you're okay. Sisters don't tend to understand things.

Pixie-dust 14-06-2007 02:14 PM

Nope my friends and fmaily don't know this site exisits! lol

_plastic 14-06-2007 02:15 PM

My sis thinks its a pretty one for general chats !

fairytale dreamer 14-06-2007 02:17 PM

My mum, dad and sister all know I come on RYL. I don't mind them knowing, I even let my sister take a look around sometimes.
Most of my close friends come on here anyway, so obviously they know about it.
I honestly don't mind people knowing, it's easier than trying to hide it everytime someone walks into the room.
But when my mum first found out about ryl, she wasn't too happy about it, but now i've shown her around, told her what it's all about ect. she fully supports me coming on here.

_plastic 14-06-2007 02:21 PM

My whole life is based on hiding and hiding really tough ...and RYl is inclueded ,myspace account despite they know i have one ,i don't like have nude pics there i don't even have pics but i fear they would talk to any of my friends
I'm not brave

My parents know about RYL, but I don't think they know that I'm a member. Most of my friends don't know about RYL, even though I'm pretty open about some stuff.

One does, she's the one who introduced me to the site.

charcoal feathers 14-06-2007 03:13 PM

My parents have no idea about RYL
I always have other tabs open too, so i can quickly turn over when someone comes in. Seems pretty pathetic seeing as im 20years old it prolly shouldn't matter

_plastic 14-06-2007 03:15 PM

i'm 19 makes almost no dieffrence ...uh the problem also lays when i'm at the forum of self-injury or Eating disorders pretty clear!

member 14-06-2007 03:15 PM

Only people who are from RYL know I go on here.
