Let me start off by saying that I DO NOT think someone should keep it a secret, however you must be careful on who you tell and who you seek support from..
I trusted people about 7 years ago with my secret and they betrayed me and it ended up with me in a psychiatric ward. I am not saying all those places are bad for the people that truly need them however when it comes to a self mutilation it does more damage than good.. They locked me up like an animal for over 6 months and I began to loose my mind. Even to this day almost 8 years later I am still messed up from what they did to me in those places. I still wake up screaming from the nightmares, I still see things because of the drug induced psychotic break they forced on me as if I was nothing more than a lab rat for their sick exirements and supposedly "safe" drug trials, and the inner scars I carry from that place is much deeper than anything I could do with a blade. I will live with what they did to me and what they allowed others to do to me for the rest of my life.
If you truly feel like one of those places will do you good then good for you, go for it.. I will support you and your decision however I am speaking from personal experience that those places are not for people like us.
Just be careful to whom you tell these things for it may be the beginning of an unescapable nightmare..
