My parents found out when they accidentally saw healing cuts. My pajama sleeve had accidentally crept up and there it was. My mom asked me what I done, etc, then called my Dad in. Dad threatened me with going to a mental hospital.
Since then, I started self-harming in other ways. After showing my Mom articles about how to help someone who self-harms, she is a lot more understanding. My Dad, not so much. But I am past caring what he thinks. He thinks he knows so much about self-harm, when he really doesn't.
