I've found myself in your predicament on several occasions.
When I finally told my parents about my self injury, I wrote it in a letter and I explained why it took me so long to tell them and ask for help. I also explained my feelings toward my feelings and that nothing they did made me start self injuring.
After I wrote the letter, I put it in my mom's car, so she wasn't around when I told them and when they finally decided to talk to me I felt a wave of relief.
Good luck!
